It's been over a week and although I spend time on the computer I haven't had the energy to think about posting. The winter blues have hit me like a ton of bricks and I just feel exhausted and cooped up in our little condo. I'm tired. I'm tired of being tired. I would eat a cow if it meant I could get more than 3 hours of sleep at a time. That is desperation if you couldn't figure it out!
Last night I was up every hour with the Baby. At about 3:30 AM she didn't want to sleep, she didn't want to nurse, she just wanted to cry. So...I got out of bed, changed a very wet diaper, and rocked my baby while she ate. The hardest thing about these difficult nights is that when morning comes I feel unable to function. Mr. Bear is tired and has to work so what is there to do? Crying is not an option. Mom's don't cry. But sometimes I really really want to. So instead I'm going to suck it up, do some dishes, brush my teeth, and pretend to keep it together. Oh, and enjoy my darling because she is why I do it all.

you are such a good mommy. I hope I can do it like you one day. She is the cutest little girl!!!
She is so precious. Motherhood looks really good on you :)
Gosh, she is so adorable! I can totally relate to feeling exhausted...my youngest just got over having RSV and we had to give him nebulizer treatments, although he's no longer sick he is still waking up a lot during the night and I'm still having to go to work in the morning. I just keep telling myself "this too shall pass". Hope you get the rest you need soon and also hope your baby girl starts feeling better and sleeping longer. Hang in there!
