…you shoo your older children outside so you can nurse the baby in peace and quiet, and you fall asleep.
…you find the coffee you had to re-heat this morning in the microwave when you go to re-heat more coffee at noon.
…you can’t stay up past 10, and don’t even want to (although you miss the blogging & blog reading you are used to doing then.)
…you can sleep in the middle of : the kids fighting, someone mowing the lawn, dogs barking, people blow drying their hair and a movie going
man….i know that tired. a tired only the mother of a newborn can know.
This sounds strangely familiar and thankfully just a memory now. I hope you’re doing alright with that sleep deprivation!
LOL is it weird if I say I can totally relate to some of these? LOL
I love my kids….but I don’t miss those days! Hang in there my friend…this too shall pass!
Ha!!! I’ve done some of those, or a variation of them!!! I’m one tired momma and I don’t have a newborn. *SIGH* Well looky! It’s 1 AM… go figure I’m tired!
