Today is our 100th day of school. I'm not gonna lie - it started out a little rough. My youngest daughter has recently started going through some relapses in her sleeping. She gets up once or twice a night and tries to get in bed with us. Honestly, after so many nights of not getting enough sleep, she has been coming in our room around 4-5:00 in the morning and I didn't even realize she was in my bed. (Yikes!) So, I made a conscience effort to break her of that - starting last night. She came in my room at 3:15 am and I immediately took her back to her bed. This turned into a meltdown, which in turn woke up her older sister. I'll spare you all the details, but the short version is this: From 3:15-4:45 AM!, one or both of the girls was crying. Ugh! We'd get one settled down and the other would start. Nobody wanted to sleep in their own beds. So, finally at 4:45, hubby said, "Forget it, everybody up!" So, we all started our day at 4:45 am this morning. It is now 1:45 in the afternoon and I'm starting to really feel the effects. My body is exhausted. My kids are getting cranky and picking at each other immensely. We're going to try to make it to gymnastics class at 3:30 and then off to Nana's house for dinner (thank you, Nana, for the sweet invitation to dinner!). I'm betting everybody will be asleep by 7:30 tonight!
Anyway - we still managed to pull out a couple of 100th Day of School projects. Each of the girls made a picture of what they think they would look like at 100. And, I did a little double duty with the second project - cleaning out old candy (helpful to me!) while sorting by 10's to 100. :) Enjoy!
Those are great! I'm storing that idea away for the future!
