it’s been a rough three weeks for sure.  i have the nasty habit of comparing the sequel to the turkey, who was pulling nice five hour stretches from the sixth day on.  the sequel can’t seem to get past three hours – three and a half if i’m super lucky.  i do remember some exhausting nights with the turkey too but i was always able to nap during the day with him to make up for it.  now that i’ve got a toddler to look after, that’s not so much an option.  hubby has been doing a great job of keeping the turkey occupied but his schedule doesn’t really overlap with the sequel’s so i’ve only got thirty minutes or so here and there to try to rest my eyes.  all day yesterday, i felt like i was about at my wit’s end.  thankfully, the sequel decided to take mercy on his momma last night by pulling a heavenly 4.5 hour stretch followed by a 3.5 hour one.  i feel considerably less zombie-like today after getting almost five hours of sleep throughout the night!
