We&#8217;re back to the up every hour thing, and it&#8217;s getting old.<\/p>\n<p>I feel bad complaining about it, because I&#8217;m not actually complaining about the fact that Siah wakes up and that we go to get him (our choice &#8211; I know) It&#8217;s more just the &#8220;feeling tired&#8221; as a result of our choices.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not ready to make him cry it out &#8211; although some nights I&#8217;m so darn close.  I&#8217;m still in the &#8220;<em>so thankful that he&#8217;s alive and here and with us<\/em>&#8221; and sometimes it feels sureal&#8230;&#8230;like the years of the immediate and intense pain from the loss(es) and grieveing couldn&#8217;t be seriously over.<\/p>\n<p>I think that as much as I&#8217;d like to be able to post here every day or at least even just during the week&#8230;.until Siah starts sleeping through, I figure there&#8217;ll be up swings of energy and down swings of tiredness.  <\/p>\n<p>How about you?  Do you or did you let your kids cry it out or do\/did you go to them when they wake\/woke up in the night&#8230;..or do\/did they just sleep in the bed with you?&#8230;..which kind of makes the other options moot then, doens&#8217;t it?<\/p>\n<p>In other news, I have failed FAILED miserably at the 30 Days of Nothing.<\/p>\n<p>The good aspect of the FAILING MISERABLY part of it is that &#8211; I have EVERY receipt from this month so far, and at the end of the month &#8211; I&#8217;m going to go through them all and figure out a &#8220;decent&#8221; or average grocery budget and then one month&#8230;.&#8221;<em>maybe January &#8211; it&#8217;s typically a tight month anyway &#8211; Hmmmmm, I&#8217;ll have to give that some more thought<\/em>&#8221; I&#8217;ll actually do it with a specific number and all in CASH.  I really think that would make a HUGE difference.  <\/p>\n<p>And now for some really funny news,  <\/p>\n<p>I bought the kids some plastic or foam or whatever material those craft pumpkins are made from.  Yah!  I bought some of those craft pumpkins for the kids.  I thought it would be fun to cut them up and then to see see how the kids &#8220;craftiness&#8221; improves each year.  It should be fun!<\/p>\n<p>But&#8230;.Jeremy had to name his.<\/p>\n<p>He comes into my room this morning, and shows me his pumpkin that has only one eye cut out so far, and he informs me that his pumpkin&#8217;s name is &#8220;One Eyed Willy&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Then he asks me what happened to Willy&#8217;s other eye and how come he only has just the one eye&#8230;..<\/p>\n<p>Yah!
