This Mommy Needs Sleep!


          So ever since we got to Florida Kylie's sleep schedule has been awful! At first it was jet lag then I finally got her on a good routine. When we got in our house and settled in Jacksonville. But every time we would go down to Orlando, which was a lot. Actually too many times in my opinion, it would ruin the great progress I made with Kylie’s naps and routine. On the days that Kylie is well rested and has had her two naps and goes to bed on time. She’s a doll barely any tantrums. But when she over tired I feel so guilty for going to Orlando so much or just the fact that my poor baby is over tired! So I’m constantly trying to make sure we are on schedule and things run smoothly. Now that she’s older she just doesn’t want to nap. she goes from good weeks were she naps beautifully to horrible weeks were its a nightmare to try and get her to sleep.  I feel like we've tried everything from cry it out, to rocking her and of course I still breastfeed her. I’m at my wits end! She still ends up in our bed at night between 2-430am to nurse. I dont mind co-sleeping and nursing for a little, but she will nurse all night most of the time and it drives me nuts. Because I'm up most of the night switching sides and I can tell we are both not sleeping well. Anyway that’s my frustration lately with my life other then that I am truly blessed. I feel like maybe Kylie is just transitioning to taking one nap instead of two a day. Whatever it is I will continue to keep her on schedule and stick with our routine! 

      Kylie is so sweet and so smart. Lately she’s been showing interest in talking more, she will say a few words randomly once then she wont say them again. Her favorite movie is curious George boofest Halloween movie it’s been her favorite for months. She cracks me up with she say uoo! (Boo). She’s finally said dada well she says it randomly same with mama. But she’s been saying mama since about 7 months. The only word she consistently says is stop! To the dog when he barks at anything she’s so bossy. She’s my best friend and stuck to me like glue. 

     Working out has been great! I’m still going to the gym and kicking butt. I just feel so impatient I just want to see results already! Daniel says I look like I’ve lost some weight but the scale is just moving so slow. The past two days I've really been watching what and how much I eat and I feel like that’s made a huge difference. Only time will tell!

     All in all life is pretty great I'm just enjoying being a mommy and wife. I really can’t complain god has truly blessed me. Please prey for me with the sleep problems that Kylie's going through.
