Sleep

I know I seem to post a lot about sleep or lack thereof. This is no different. I knew having a child that my sleep would change, but I have to say I am looking forward to when she is a teenager and sleeps all day because I will be too. Her sleep has actually gotten way better lately though with her in a bed. She normally goes to bed around 9ish and is up at 7:30. She has had 2 colds though in the last month and for about 4 days for each one sleep almost never happens. On Saturday though we got ourselves a new bed. We decided to jump up to a king and I was so excited. I worked my 12 hour day and all I could think about was a good night sleep in the new bed. Then I realized that Lauren was still sick and I would actually spend very little time in the new bed. When I got home I had a long talk with her telling her to sleep all night so I could enjoy the new bed. Well she must have listened because she didn't wake till 7:30. The only problem was that Tony and I didn't sleep that great and woke up so sore. We think that we got so used to the divots and sleeping wrong in the old bed that now that we have a new proper bed it is making our bodies sleep properly and now they hurt. This means that we both need to go to the chiropractor and soon to fix us. I am working nights tonight and will give the bed a try again in the morning. I am so looking forward to sleeping all day in the bed to myself and I am sure that I will be fine. My back is killing me though and I am sure it is because of work and not the bed so I am still going to go for an adjustment anyway. I am just so happy with a brand new king size bed. Although I know that at this moment both Lauren and Tony are sleeping soundly in it and I am a bit jealous of that fact. When I am on nights and Tony has to get her to my parents on his way to work he has found that if she is too hyper at night and won't go to bed he puts her in ours and she thinks it is like a treat and she sleeps great for him. It is funny knowing that is one thing that he said he would never do it have a baby in our bed but I guess she isn't really a baby anymore.

The next big thing we have coming up is that i have to sign her up for preschool. I can't believe she is old enough for preschool. I have to sign her up at 10PM on Tuesday. It is such a weird time to do it but I guess it is the first year online to sign up and they don't want the system to crash. I just hope that I get her in to the one I want. I have 2 options that I am going for: Uplands and Newlands and hopefully one has a space for her.
