Sleep never looked so good!

Ok, so yesterdays blog had a little mistake! It wasn't the gold metal game last night, that is being played Sunday- because WE WON LAST NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was a great game to watch and we had an awesome time with all of our neighbours! What I thought would be a quiet night at home turned into a party that lasted until 3am. OMG! Yes I am exhausted.

Kaylee was hanging out with us enjoying everyones company and dozed off around 9pm... We were loud with curling on at the time and the guitar being played. I decided I would put her in her crib where it was nice and quiet. I placed her in and snuck back downstairs with he baby monitor. Not five minutes later she was screaming crying. I brought her back downstairs and it seemed as soon as she heard the noise she was back to sleep. I left her in her little vibrating chair (which by the way is amazing!) for the next few hours

Earlier in the afternoon I had decided I was going to have a beer, and A beer turned into about 5 beer. I was feeling lovely, cooked supper and decided that the smart thing to do would be to stop drinking as it would be no fun feeling like poop in the middle of the night with a little one screaming. This of course was before everyone came over.

Once everyone was there I sipped on 1 beer for about 2 hours. I really had no interest in being hung over with a baby but with a beer in my hand it appeared I was drinking. I played bar tender pouring shots of Porn Stars and Polar Bears for everyone, never once having on- AND never having anyone notice I wasn't having any.

Now its a great crowd we hang out with and I must say my Dad did well keeping up. Actually, he was the last one standing. I snuck off at around 1:00am and decided I better get some sleep. Of course when I crawled in bed Kaylee woke up and decided it was play time. Up she remained until 3am. I was soooooo tired and only wanted to sleep, but at that point she had been an angel all night and I couldn't complain.

Jordon crawled into bed around 3am while I was laying with her trying to con her into a sleep. Everyone at this point was clearing out and Dad helped me, as I left Kaylee with Jordon for the next half hour and I cleaned up.

There is nothing worse then waking up the day after a party and seeing the huge mess. Dad did an awesome job and stayed up when I went off to bed to watch a little more of the Olympics.

Kaylee slept from 3am-6:30... Let me assure you, 3 1/2 hours is just not enough sleep.
I got up and changed her, fed her, rocked her and crossed my fingers she would doze back off. Sure enough by 7:45 she had. I crawled back in bed and 5 minutes later on the monitor she was crying.

Ok, so picture this- me, who feels like they did a great job of being a sleep deprived new mom and hostessed the whole night before, woke up with baby and just wanted another hour of sleep- looks over at SNORING Jordon....

That was it, he got up with her. I needed to close my eyes. It was great. He took her downstairs and I slept until 9:30. Yaaa!

I made a huge hang-over breakfast for Jordon, Dad and Amanda who all claimed they were not feeling bad, bu who all had a couple Tylenol and dragged their feet.
All the rain we had in the last couple days has melted the snow. I think I am going to gear up and take the dogs for a walk with Kaylee in the stroller.

Until tomorrow!!! :)

  1. Sounds like a fun night but a rough morning. I love reading your blog.

    I've read that babies under 6 weeks sleep better with lots of noise because that's what they're used to in the womb. Who knows though, every book says something different.

    Hope you're having a good time with your dad. Make sure to get Jordan to help as much as you can ;)
