A typical night

7:00pm: Mike leaves for scouts, I put the girls in a bath.

7:30: Two clean girls leave the bath, Bailey is coloring in her room, I am putting Avery down.

7:45: Bailey tells me she has peed in her panties. Of course, I didn't put her in her training panties because she has not had an accident in weeks.

7:50: I lay Avery down, and go to deal with Bailey, who has peed all over the bathroom floor right next to the toilet. I tell her she has to clean in up. She falls in the puddle and gets covered in her own pee. Nice.

7:55: While she is in the shower, I clean up the big mess, and then clean her up.

8:05: Bailey and Avery are both in bed. Yeah. Time to relax.

8:05-8:50: Bailey gets up about four times having to go to the potty. Mike comes home and tells her no more potty, and no more getting up.

9:00: Avery wakes up. I refuse to feed her- it's only been an hour. She cries for a few minutes and goes back to sleep.

9:40: Avery wakes up again. I decide maybe she really is hungry and try to feed her.

9:45: While I am feeding Avery, Bailey is yelling in her room, "DADDY! DADDY! DADDY!" I am worried that she is going to really wake up Avery, who is almost asleep. Mike goes back and wraps up Bailey's baby.

9:50: Avery is in her crib again. Finally.

10:30: We are getting ready for bed. Bailey is still awake.

10:45: I am seriously exhausted. We turn out the lights, and Avery wakes up again.

11:00: After feeding Avery, she is back in her own bed. I think that Bailey is asleep.

1:00: Avery wakes up and kind of eats, again.

4:30: Avery wakes up and kind of eats.

5:30: Avery wakes up again. I refuse to feed her. She fuses for a few minutes and goes back to sleep. Mike has to be up in a half an hour but doesn't go back to sleep.

6:00: Mike gets up, Avery fusses a little, but I still don't get her up.

6:30: Mike leaves. Maybe now I can go back to sleep.

6:50: Bailey wakes up, I tell her it's too early and that she needs to go back to bed. She at least stays in her bed.

7:00: Avery wakes up for the day and eats. Bailey hears us up and gets up as well.

I am ready for a good night's sleep! And a vacation by myself. Maybe Mike can come if he promises to just let me sleep...
