For she's a jolly good baby......

I can sing that song over and over again!

I really wouldn't want to jinx it, but oh well! I just gotta tell you why she IS a jolly good baby. My precious little Mia gave me a really nice gift on Monday night and again last night.

Like I said before my allergies were horrible on Monday. I had a terrible headache, but that little one of mine gave me a break.

She slept through the night!!!! and I slept through the night too!! (even when Velani decided that night she didn't want to sleep in her bed, so she decided to go up stairs and sleep in our bed. Oh! but not before she turns OFF our fan! and then jumps on Jahvel causing him to groan, but I was too tired and sleepy to care) and I really don't know how long it has been since I last slept like that, but it sure did feel good.

When I woke up Tuesday morning I thought, "Wow! I slept more than 4 hours straight" and I was grateful for that and I didn't care if it wasn't the beginning of those kind of nights where you actually get to sleep, but I had one good night and that was more than I could have asked for. Oh! but it doesn't end there...

Last night when I put Mia down for bed I silently prayed she would sleep through the night again. My prayers were answered and she slept through the night, again! but I should have prayed that I slept through the night again as well. Now I don't know if my girls talk about it or what, but it seems like every time this happens the other one decides to take over. It's like they say, "Ok, I already let you sleep for a whole month, but now it's my turn to get some good night sleep, so you wake those parents of ours up at least once every night for the next month, or at least mommy who doesn't seem to mind if she sleeps or not."

I seriously think that is really what happens behind closed doors when I believe they are sound asleep.

Velani listened to Mia and last night I heard her door open and then close and heard her little footsteps coming up the stairs and then she was in our bed. It would have been nice if it ended there, but NOOOOOOO she had to be moving and making noises for a while, then she gets up and goes to the potty and comes back and starts moving and making noises again. I am not gonna lie to you, I got upset! I went into the attic to out her Dora couch/sleeping bag or whatever and moved her onto it, she cried for a little and then......Silence.......for the remainder of the night.

Now last night would have been great if it weren't for that little interruption, but that Mia is a jolly good baby and I just hope she keeps it up that way. I'll let you know if I jinxed it.
