Mommy: POW

It’s ridiculous how long it’s been since I’ve updated this blog.   Truly, I have become a prisoner of war to Cooper and his two-week-long battle with a vicious cold and ear infection.   The little bugger has. not. slept.   He’s had several nights of two and three hour crying jags, and up so many times inbetween I’ve been lucky to log three hours of straight sleep in any one night.   He was such a good sleeper from the get-go, we never even went through this when he was brand new.   It’s killing me.   I’ve been crashing into bed as soon as he goes down for the night, trying to sneak as much sleep as possible.   All making Mommy a very dull girl.

And there has been so much to write about.   So many tidbits throughout the days that I think – ha!   I’ve got to blog about this.   Then the zombie hours kick in and sitting down in front of the computer seems about as appetizing as eating hair.

Someday soon I hope to be back on the wagon – sleeping normally and invigorated at the opportunity of a life outside trying to get a seventeen pound wiggler to sleep through the night.   Someday.

Hi ho, hi ho, it’s off to bed I go…

    POW to a “seventeen pound wiggler,” that same capturing face you showed us on your previous post? Count me a captive. Rest as you can, you got eighty pounds on him, and a couple of years. And where is all that mommyblog answer man stuff from your readers? Is it POW too?
