4:00 AM

Last night Addie woke up at 4:00 AM. So- I get up to feed her. (When I feed Addie I turn on the hallway light and it stays on the whole time I feed her so I can see.) So, as I am feeding her I hear "mommy- I can't find my blankie!" at this point I am thinking- "you have got to be kidding me- it is 4:00 AM!!!!!" Then I think- "oh- I have got to find some other way to feed her where I don't have to turn the hall light on!" Then I think- "maybe she was just talking in her sleep!" No such luck! I still have about 10 minutes until I am done feeding Addie and this is what I am hearing on and off through the feeding- "mommy- I wake up!, mommy, Macie awake!" This was repeated several times. And it was not in a quiet voice either. Well- I finally finish feeding Addie and go into Macie's room. I open her door and she is sitting up just waiting for me. Just when I didn't think that it could get any worse- I go to tuck her in and she is stinky. So I ask her- "are you poopy?" Her response- "yep!" (This is where I really thought- "are you kidding me!!!! You have not pooped in your diaper at night since you were like 3 months old!!!") So, as I am changing her she starts to laugh.
I then say- "Macie it is not time to play it is time to go to sleep"
Macie: "No mommy- I being silly!"
She continues to laugh and keeps telling me that she is being silly! I get done changing her and tuck her into bed and tell her to go to sleep and she says- ok! And that is that last that I heard from her. WOW! I thought that I was in for it and she was never going to go back to sleep!!
