Well, last night was day 2 of my covert operation. It's getting better and like I said before I'm determined to keep at it.
8:00 pm - Brooklynn down for the night and asleep in her crib
11:30 pm - Brooklynn awake, standing in the crib crying
11:45 pm - Brooklynn back asleep in the crib
12:15 am - Brooklynn awake again and wants to nurse
12:15-12:30 - Mommy gives in and nurses because the rocking and back patting wasn't cutting it.
12:30 am - Brooklynn back to sleep in crib
12:30-2am - Mommy couldn't sleep so I was up watching re-runs of Golden Girls---that Sophia is a mess
2am - I think I finally fell asleep
3am - Brooklynn awake AGAIN, standing and crying in crib
3:01 - Brooklynn in Mommy's bed asleep
I'll try again tonight. Oh, I did put one of my pillow cases in her crib so that my smell would be near. Don't know if it helped but I figured I may as well try it. When I put her down for the night in her crib my bed felt funny without her. I was a little sad but immediately snapped out of it. I stretched out sideways just so that I could take up the whole bed. I can't really say I slept well. Everytime she coughed or moved one eye popped open. I guess it will get better for the both of us.

You're such a punk. Operation GYAOMB will make you an insomniac Yeah, Monette and I were cracking up about you and Brooklynn last night. Yup, the operation and tooth brushing!! IT'S ALL COMEDY!!!!!
How about you let my baby nap in there today and get her more comfy in the daytime and she might not wake up so much!!
Don't even start that I was missing her CRAP. We have to be strong here. We will like having her bed to ourselves! Yes we will! Maybe if I keep saying it, I'll believe it.

Deon, for real for real Sis!!! You are one of the Mommies I want to be when I grow up. For Brooklynn, you are so selfless, sacrificing and excellent. You give all of yourself and have put yourself on a backburner and you do it with so much love and humility and for that Sis, I have to to you. I pray that God continues to guide you in this journey of Motherhood cuz I am convinced He gave you a special EXTRA MOMMY SUPERPOWER. I remind myself daily not to even complain when I don't get help, because your shift NEVER ends and a break is not in sight! But I know that there are many, many blessings in store and as you open up your heart and welcome those blessings, I can only say you raise the bar even higher! I'm glad to have you in my circle of Mommy Sisters! You keep it SKRAIGHT DIVA, HILARIOUS, FULFILLING, AND LOVING!
So, let's journey on to the last month of our MASTERPIECE being an infant cuz TODDLER days are ahead!!!
