Tired!


















Everyone is very tired in the Niebuhr household, growing babies included! Poor Daddy doesn't get much sleep at all, plus he has to work all day. He claims he sometimes finds himself dozing off at his computer. Coffee is now a part of his morning routine (it never was before!). Grandma Ellen has been spending some nights here, and it's making her tired, too. Grace and Will are having some sleepy time in their bouncy seats as mom and dad get ready for the day. The "Baby Einstein" video just wasn't entertaining enough to keep them awake. Mommy is learning to get by on 4 or 5 interrupted hours of sleep a night. Boy are we looking forward to the time when they will sleep through the night! Right now, they are sleeping between 4 and 5 hours at a time. And when one wakes up to eat at night, we wake the other up, too and everyone eats. Hopefully sleeping more than 5 hours isn't too far off. How much longer can mommy and daddy function on this little sleep? Not much!
