For the record

Just wanted to write this up for the record book.  A typical night these days. (It's been this way for the past month I might add...)
Between 9:30-11pm.  -- Rhone goes to sleep.  I go to sleep.  Yay!!
1:00 a.m. - Rhone wakes up.  I nurse him.  He falls asleep.
3:00 a.m. - Rhone wakes up.  I nurse him.  He falls asleep.  I fall asleep in the rocking chair.
3:45 a.m. - I wake up realizing I am in the rocking chair.  I put Rhone in his crib and go back to bed.
4:30 a.m. - Rhone wakes up.  I nurse him.  He falls asleep.
6:00 a.m. - Rhone wakes up.  I nurse him.  He falls asleep.
7:15 a.m. - Rhone wakes up.  I am upset.  It really is morning.  Adalyn will be up soon.  Oh dear.  In slight denial, I take Rhone to bed with me despite the fact it will disturb Mark who is still sleeping.  Maybe I can get a few more minutes of sleep myself before really being up for the day. 
And that's how it goes...  Will I ever sleep again?  It's only for a time.... Hopefully.  It feels like an eternity.

In keeping with the thankfulness theme, however, I must continue to remember things aren't all bad.  I am thankful that:
a)  I don't have any trouble falling asleep
b)  Rhone always goes back to sleep
c)  Adalyn sleeps perfect at night
d)  Mark is around to help me during the day
