Ugh, Hec, I know the feeling. I hear the 18-month sleep regression is even worse than the 9-month. Not looking forward to it AT ALL.
I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Dear gods in heaven, it was truly, one of the few times I regretted being a mother. It SUCKED. It was a huge transition phase for Em - we switched daycare, I switched jobs, our schedule changed, and she started potty training. Poor kid.

I didn't realize the A's had Keith Folke this year.

Because books.
There are times when getting your kids to sleep feels like your only mission in life. An impossible one, too. Your desperate need for sleep usually correlates directly to how hard they'll fight going to bed, too.

Jessica, Sara went through a similar phase when she was about nine or ten months. She'd been going down just fine, and suddenly she was up every hour or so, and would NOT settle for anything but being on my lap, talking and grabbing my hair and sucking on my T-shirt and generally being a HUGE NUISANCE at three A.M. It sucked so hard. I feel for you.

YES! So much this!! Why do babies not know that 3 am is for sleeping when it's so obvious??
You know, if *I* were designing a species, I'd make sure the young knew how to sleep through the night AT BIRTH. It's totally going on my list for when I become a supreme being, along with "no more janky knees" and "built-in wifi."

See, this is why Jessica will get to be the supreme being one day and I will not. She is much more practical in her thinking. My big goal as supreme being would be size adjustable boobs.

I could be persuaded to put that on the list too. Though I would also accept "shirts that fit" as an acceptable alternative.
[Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand DH just called to tell me I forgot my keys again. So maybe I'm not qualified to be a supreme being after all.]

Ah, but see, with adjustable boobs, ALL shirts fit!
Also, I had a dream that I caught Suzi, juliana, and my boss' uncle were discussing my gauchos. I'm not kidding. It's triple-y crazy because I haven't worn any in YONKS.

That's some yummy word salad you got going up there.
