yay for sleep :-)
As I was binging on the internet late last night, I picked up Charlotte and patted her back off and on for a few minutes and she crashed! I took her upstairs and she didn't even 'startle' when I put her in her bassinet (at 12:40 am)! I tried to sleep in bed for an hour, then gave up and slept in the recliner. Every time I laid down just a little bit, my throat would tickle and I would cough so sleeping semi-sitting was better than nothing.
I expected to hear from Charlotte at about 3, maybe as late as 4 am, but I didn't hear anything until 6:15 !! She had slept for 5.5 hours in her own bed !!!!! I woke up when Jack got up for work and when he went in to the bathroom, I could hear Julia in our room, chatting away to Charlotte. I assumed that Charlotte had already been awake when Julia's conversation started, but apparently not. Jack and I both growled and hissed at her so she retreated to her own bed and I took Charlotte into bed for an early breakfast. My boobs were so full that as I stumbled from the living room to my room, I bumped into the doorway with one of my boobs (ouch!!).
I would be feeling 100% this morning but sometime in the night, I pulled something in my neck, so from behind my left ear all the way down to the middle of my back, I'm really tight and sore. No shoulder-checking on my left today ;-)
And now, at a respectable 7:30 am, I will go and get Julia up for school and start my day. After sleeping last night, it should be safe for me to drive again and I won't be slurring my words anymore.
