This is the Question

Sweet, right? So why won't they do it?!

William Shakespeare said, "To be, or not to be; that is the question." Well, move over Shakespeare, I have a better question...how is it that someone who likes to sleep as much as I do, has two kids that seem to avoid sleeping at all costs? Last night Liam went to sleep at 8:30 (normal) he woke up to eat at 11:00 (also normal), then he was up until 1:00 in the morning! Not hungry, not sleepy, perfectly happy, but wide awake. THEN he woke up again around 4:45/5:00 am and was up until 6:30; again, not hungry or fussy, just awake. This in and of itself stinks, but the night before Annah was up from 3:00 to 5:00 am. Quiet, but nevertheless awake and in my bed. What is going on around here?! I have got to get some sleep...soon!

On a completely different subject, here is a conversation Annah and I had tonight...

Annah: Screeching (in a tone I can't understand and only little girls can make) something to Liam

Mommy: "Annah, I want to teach you a word in french (Fancy Nancy loves french, so anything in french is automatically cool). The word is sans. It means without. So if Mommy says to talk to Liam sans screeching, that means to talk to him without screeching"

A: "I learned french. Now I want to teach you something in french"

M: "What's that?"

A: "Blady-blady"

M: "What does blady-blady mean?"

A: "Holy Moly"

How can I argue with that?
