It doesn't SLEEP

Sierra has become a grumpy monster! She will not sleep at night, and even when she does, Jaymes doesn't sleep either and wakes her up. She seems to think she belongs in bed with ME and it is getting old. With the total lack of sleep in the past week, I've relented and she sleeps a few hours. Let's just say everyone is dead friggin tired. TIRED.

Sierra is a grouch all day, because she's TIRED. Jason is also a grouch. As am I. Jaymes is Jaymes. Sleep, oh how I miss you.

Christmas goodies!

In case you didn't think Sierra had enough baby dolls, she now has a bunch more. We got her a life sized one, and I put one of her own newborn outfits on it. Kinda cool, since I saved her teeny stuff, her baby has a big wardrobe! She also got two other babies from others, one being a small newborn baby type with a bed and blanket and the other being a toddler-baby that looks just like her, minus the hemmangeoma! It has 2 pairs of shoes and 2 outfits. I think MIL got that for her.

She got lots of cute clothes from MIL too, for once I think she listened to Jason and I because she got all the right sizes, and not too much was hideous. Her taste was pretty on par with my own.

Her favorite gift was the baby doll stroller I chose for her. She wheels her babies all around the house, all day long. Loves it. Soooo cute. She got a big, clear, water/glitter filled bounce ball too, and loves to play "catch" with me rolling it up and down the hall.

She doesn't sleep anymore. She is apparently tall enough to open her door now, so she comes out every hour or so. We put her back, she screams her head off and comes back out, and in the end no one gets any sleep. It really sucks, and she's not a happy camper during the day since she's not getting her sleep. I may give the pediatrician a call and see if he has any thoughts.

All in all, I'd say the little shoe diva had a good Xmas. Thankfully the disgusting drama unfolding in the "family" has not touched her like it has Jaymes, and she can remain blissfully unaware of anything bad on a special day like this one.

Posting FAIL

I know, I know. I suck. once the holiday garbage is done with, I will have more time for blogging. I'm very sorry for my inactivity!

Sierra remains adorable, but evil. She no longer sleeps at night. She screams out "dadddddyyyyy!" or else just whines. She stops the minute you let her out, she just wants to sleep with me. I'm not doing it- terrible habit. No children sleeping in my bed. No no no.

She's getting a little better. I've implemented the whole "ferberizing" thing. It works well. I'm cruel and heartless.

But it's either she sleeps, or... I mail her away to Abu Dhabi.
