Must Keep Eyes Open.

I am so tired. I hereby officially take back ANY other time I ever complained about being tired. My whole body is aching to go to sleep. Sadly, the sleep does not seem to cure the tired. I wake up just as tired, if not more, than when I went to bed. I have been trying to convince Ian that it is prefectly healthy for pregnant woman to drink Energy Drinks in their third trimesters. So far, he is not buying it.
The second I found out I was pregnant Ian began to get crazy about my caffeine intake. Which means I have not had a sip of soda in almost 30 weeks. Now, Ian is not usually that interested in what I eat, and he would never try and control it, but for some reason he is crazy about this caffeine thing. I am not sure if he read something online about caffeine leading to crazy mutant babies or maybe he just knows someone who drank a lot of caffeine and their baby came out really hyper but he is convinced that caffeine equals certain disaster. If I even mention drinking some soda he gets this really worried look on his face that says, “sure sweetie, if soda is that important to you go ahead and ruin our unborn babies life.” Of coure, he says this with a 40 ounce of Dr. Pepper in his hand.
Seriously though, I have got to get some decent rest. Luckily, today I only had 2 babies so I was able to put them down for a nap at 11 so that I could lay on the couch and attempt a quick power nap. This was only semi-successful. The little girl I watch likes to sleep for 20 minutes, scream for 10, sleep for 20….even when the house is completely silent. Not the best napping environment.
Okay, I am off to attempt another night of frequently interrupted, uncomfortable sleep. Goodnight.

I remember being so tired that I couldn't, no way, not soever stay awake in the afternoon, it didn't matter that Chelsea was awake and ready to play, thankfully she was a good girl. I can't imagine what would have happened if I had other kids to watch. My hat is off to you for being able to stay awake. You go girl.
