Will I ever sleep through the night again?

Sleep, sleep, sleep, oh the joys of sweet, sweet sleep! My son is still not sleeping through the night and he will be a year old next Saturday. I am not the kind of mommy that lets her boy "cry it out". I last about 5 minutes and then I am in there cuddling him and nursing him and wrapping him in his favorite blanket to make all the sniffles stop. I know I am putting myself in this position because I was the one that started the feeding and snuggling him to sleep and now I am paying for wanting that extra bonding time with my son. Really, why am I being punished because I love him so much? Crazy that it comes back to bite you in the butt. I have new determination every morning that "tonight will be different" and that I will let him cry it out and he will learn to sleep through the night starting now! But we will see...will I really do it tonight? We will see, we will see.

Teething...Oh the Joys

So, my son is teething...that is no fun. I feel so bad for the little guy. He really is a trooper but those dang upper teeth are a real pill! He is such a sweet happy boy and I feel bad for him when he cries because he is hurting. We are just at the beginning of this whole teeth thing so he has a long ways to go in the dental world. I just hope that he can make it through without too much pain.

A New Beginning?

So, here I am , thinking that maybe I will join the world of the bloggers. I am not one for doing such things, I am one that just likes reading about others lives. So I will start small, introduce myself to this new world and see if it is a place that I would like to make a part of my world. I am sure that there are lots of things in my life to write about, but would it be interesting to all of you? Maybe not, but maybe just a good place to talk about my day and perhaps there is someone out there, like me, who just wants to read about someone elses life to see if we really are all that different. Well, for a beginning it is small but it is a beginning none the less!
