I feel like I should say something about the weekend and the night I had last night. The weekend was pretty uneventful since we couldn't decide on staying home or going to the Keys. We decided that this weekend was not the weekend to do the Keys. So we stayed home and cleaned house, watched the children play with their Lincoln Logs, and cleaned out our clothes closet.

It is sort of a good thing that the weekend was relaxed and slow because last night my eighteen month old little person decided that sleep was for wimps. She woke up at 2 a.m. with a tummy ache and then decided that a movie and some toys were in order.

I did all of those mommy things we do, trying to get her to go back to sleep. I rocked her, massaged her tummy, cuddled with her, put her in her bed several times to go to sleep on her own, and finally gave up and fell asleep while she played. I think I slept an hour or two and then she crawled up beside me and went to sleep for an hour or so. When daylight crept through the blind she was off again. She hasn't had a nap today. She shows no signs of passing out. I need sleep. Soon.
