i am always tired . . . always. the sad part is i go to bed within an hour of the kids' bedtime. so, sadly, i am in bed by 9:30 AT THE LATEST! and i don't wake up on most days until the last possible second . . . 6:30 and on days i workout and don't need to shower, 6:45. so, in theory, i should be getting plenty of sleep. so, why am i so tired?
well, this morning, figured it out!
last night i went to bed at 9:30 and was asleep by 10. kam woke up at 11:15 so i talked to her to get her to calm down and fall back asleep. i was back in bed by 11:30. i probably fell asleep about 12:15 (for the second time!) and kam woke up again, this time screaming. the clock read 12:30. so, i climbed back in bed around 12:45 and fell asleep close to 1:30.
then i heard crying right next to my bed . . . mck couldn't sleep. she crawled in bed with me and quickly passed out (amazing how that works!). so she falls asleep, but i am waking up to being kicked in the stomach every 30 minutes or so and just when i can't take anymore . . . approximately 4 a.m., kam is crying again. so i decide to make a switch. i carry mck back to her bed and tuck her in and pick kam up and bring her in bed with me, hoping she's tired enough to fall asleep quickly!
lucky for me, she's asleep by 4:30 and i get a whole 2 hours of uninterrupted sleep! when you add it all up, i had probably 4 hours of sleep . . . an hour here, an hour there.
that's why i'm so darn tired!
