I am sooooooo Tired

I am so tired today. hubby has been out of town for about 5 days and I have been a single mom. The days with the boys have been pretty easy but the night time has been so hard. Unfortunately, Jett is used to daddy sleeping with him at night (Owen sleeps in our room and usually in bed with me and there is not enough room for all of us so Chris ends up in Jett's bed most nights). We start off okay, but by 12midnight the drama starts....Owen wakes up I put him in bed with me and BF and usually he is snoozing away again...then I hear the puttering of little feet and Jett comes in I then put Jett back in his bed and get into bed with him...about 3hours later Owen is crying again...ahhh...I am back in bed BF Owen back to sleep, 5 min later Jett putters back into my bed... usually, I get everyone sleeping again pretty quickly, but last night Owen decided not go back to sleep till 6am! Jett has to be ready to leave for school at 7:50am we did not wake up this morning till 7:30am! We barely made it.

I am telling you I am so over this...cannot wait till hubby comes home today. Anyone have any advice on getting Owen sleeping longer through the night??? He was sleeping through the night at about 2 1/2mo. I knew it would not last forever...

I really wish there was something you could give them...its like I handle it all being a mom except the sleepless nights that I cannot handle...I feel so depressed over it.

Lots of hugs!! Dylan didn't sleep for more than five hours in a row until he was eight months old. I used to have the grandparents come over and babysit so I could get a nap in. Hang in there!
