2 hours 15 min.

That is how long it took tonight for not a creature to be stirring. Not even a hamster. I started the whole bedtime routine at 7pm. Timmers first. He goes down quite well usually. Books and bed. Joshua gets to yammering but does all the bed time stuff while I get the other 2 into jams, pick out books and brush teeth etc. Read to all of them. Lights out by 8:37pm. By 9:10 Nathan was still calling out for food, water, blankies, somesing, anysing. 9:15 and all was still. I am pretty sure I can go to bed now. I think it's safe to say that Sunday is done.

Famous last words, friend.

Not that I know ANYTHING. See previous posts' comments.

Oh, you had one of THOSE nights. Those nights make me get a few more gray hairs all by themselves. Sounds like you handled it quite well, though.

Every night is one of THOSE nights, lovey.

I think I even had you beat last night! Gracie fell asleep in her room at 5:30, so I woke her up at 6:00 (you know. so she'd go to be easily!). Laid her down at 7. . .she still wasn't asleep at 9:30!!! AAAGH!

Feeling your pain,
Brandi

Carla,
It's now Monday, but I just read your post. Micah just came down the stairs at 10:13pm and said, "Mom, I just wanted to check, 'Is it ok that I'm doing AWANA?'"

Uhhhh, NO! I let you stay up late watching a movie and then sent you to bed, tucked you in and turned out the light! What part of that didn't you understand?

I definately understand "those" nights.
