"looking forward to the end of the day when daddy shows up" Do you do the clock watch at the end of the day too? Or is that just me? On the bad days I even start calling about an hour before it is time for him to get home asking when he is coming home. I'm so pathetic. LOL
"Do you ever feel like you were lied to about the whole sleep thing?" Oh yeah! The sleep thing and the entire baby thing! They say it is hard but they don't really tell you. I think it is their secret way to get you into the parent club. They make it all shiny and sweet and rewarding sounding and then you go and give a try and before you know it you are trying to convert other childless people to your way of life just so you too will have more people to talk about nap time and poop to.
re specifically sleep: even now I feel like I can't even complain to my non AP friends about the sleep situation because they believe I should just let her CIO in her crib like that would solve all my problems. They really freak out when they find out she doesn't have a crib and sleeps with us. But I swear their kids have to be awake during the night as well, they must have some trouble napping, they must be cranky and have sleep issues, etc... after all they are just babies and toddlers not adults. Did they just stop crying about it or do they still cry and the parents don't listen?
Wow sorry... I didn't mean to turn that into a mini rant.
