We are right smack into the terrible twos. This one, kept me up the whole night. And on a go-to-work day too. I blame the loopy DVD player.
First I found her drinking her milk from the bottle cap like an 18 year old drinking beer from a mug. She had CHEWED through the bottle nipple (it was raggedly cut in half with a small sliver of silicone attached) and was oh so casually pouring milk from the broken nipple into the bottle cap. All while watching a Barbie Princess Charm School video for the nth time. So I washed her sticky hands and brought her back into the room with a warning not to chew the bottle nipples (she had already chewed through 5 nipples this week).
I then realized that the movie had been looping over and over again. It would reach a certain part and then go back to the beginning of the video. So I turned it off as it was bedtime. That's when it all started. She cried so hard she threw up. I got her to the bathroom in time, so, okay, no biggie. But the crying brought on a very runny nose and she woke up intermittently every 10 minutes or so to get me to wipe her nose. The.whole.night. She finally stopped at 4:40 am. I know because the hubby got up to go to the bathroom and I asked what time it was. Sleep deprivation is the pits when you have to get up at 6am to go to work.
So if you see a half dead person with sunken eyes staggering into Starbucks for a cup of coffee, yeah, that would be me.
