We had a very sleepless night and if I may joke so that I don't cry from sheer exhaustion-- I am out of practice with this whole not sleeping thing! I used to be really good at it. Now, not so much. I've already dropped the phone in our puppy's water bowl, and had to make coffee twice (those things are unrelated. Obviously.).
This is why I am happy to have had my kids close together; I got all my long-term sleep deprivation out of the way at one time. Sure, I didn't sleep for 3 years straight, but then...ahhh, sweet sleep. Of course, others may argue that they needed a break before delving into the sleeplessness with the next baby, but that wasn't my choice. Oh, and also, I hear that some babies actually let their parents sleep. But I apparently forgot to check that box on my baby order form. Ok, well before I start rambling on...
