I'm at the end of today's rope. There is a rope for every day. I'm having a glass of wine in front of the computer with iTunes blasting so I can't hear the screaming coming from the bedroom. Danika is just not sleeping during the day. I swear I have only had a break from holding for 10-15 minutes in the last 10 hours. I've gotten her to sleep 6-7 times but every time I put her down she wakes up and finally I just had to leave her for a few minutes. Not really because I think she'll go to sleep, because I don't, but because I'm fixin to lose it here. I remember going through this with Miles. It's hard because you get your hopes up and start to think about what you're going to do once they are down - it's so close you can touch it, but it's always out of your grasp when they won't cooperate. Miles is with his grandparents and so this is her big opportunity, there is no sleeping when Miles is here because I don't have the time to dedicate to putting her down and he wakes her up. I fantasize about those people who do nap time by just putting the baby in the crib, closing the door and walking away. Then again, I don't really know any people like that.
This is pretty negative..but maybe no one is reading it :)

people read it... I think. tip: as long as you don't have a continuous stream of negative entry titles, it does not seem too bad!
