So last night was one of THOSE nights. Tiny Boy woke for the first time around 11:30. And despite going to bed at 10:00, I had some crazy fit of insomnia that lasted until about 3:30. Certainly wasn't helped by the fact that he woke again at 1:00 and 2:30 or so and then maybe 4:30 or 5:00. yeah. I think maybe I got an hour and a half of uninterrupted sleep, plus about 30 minutes here and there.
So I'm functionally brain dead today. But tried napping twice and just can't. So I've been puttering around trying to do domestic things I'd like to get done before school starts (like, I still haven't entirely dealt with the filing cabinet mess since moving Tiny Boy into my home office) and doing the laundry.
And now I think I'm going to go to run a couple errands and then pick up a Tiny Boy and take him on a walk. And shovel food in him like he's not going to eat for a week. Or at least overnight.
Fuck.

I had the same thing happen! The night before last night BlueEyes slept THE ENTIRE NIGHT (okay he woke up at 5 am, but either way this was pretty unique). And then last night he woke basically every 1-1,5 hours. I lost hope of ever finding logic behind baby-toddler sleep.

That sounds truly dreadful. It is my firm belief that insomnia in parents of young children should be illegal. Or at least compensated monetarily by the state.
