that I'm going to *try* to stand, er, lay firm and have the girls sleep in their own beds. I tried this about two weeks ago when Brian took the weekend off thinking that it would be helpful that he was here and could assist me in my endeavor; however, it did not work at all as Molly's crying woke him up and he just got her and put her back in our bed. I'm off this weekend and already exhausted, so I don't think missing out on sleep with hurt me too bad!
What was the final straw forcing me to do this??? Last night I was utterly exhausted. The turn-around I worked earlier in the week combined with Molly having the flu was catching up to me. Mary Claire did not want to sleep in her own bed and Molly would not go to sleep with Mary Claire in the bed and the TV on. Molly finally fell asleep and tossed and turned all night long; I felt like every time she moved I woke up. And then Mary Claire wanted to lay by me and laid right on top of Molly and woke her up. I was so tired and now angry that I told myself then and there that I was going to stand strong and get them out of my bed.
While I love having the girls close to me, I really think I'm ready for my bed back....and the same room just a different bed is close enough!
