Bedtimes.

I swear I’ve written a post about this before.  Oh yeah, that’s right!? I HAVE.

I hate bedtime for the kids.  Usually, about one day a week it goes 100% smoothly.  Shelby doesn’t wake up from Morgan and Morgan goes to bed without me having to go in there to reprimand her.  That’s only 14% of the time people!  Not what a call a successful project management regime.

If I don’t have to deal with Morgan goofing around, then I have to deal with her crying for attention.  And if she does that, then Shelby wakes up.  And since Shelby wakes up, I have to try to settle her or make her cry herself back to sleep.

It sucks. 

Am I the only one who deals with it like this?  I hope not because I already feel like I suck at bedtimes; it would be nice to no I’m not alone:)!

Do you have a white noise machine for Shelby? We got one for Kylie to drown out the sound...best $15 I could buy! Doesn't solve all my sleep problems but ever little bit helps.
