No sleep
Last night was one of the hardest ones since Aaron came home. He has some gas problems or something but he would not go to sleep. I tried to feed him and he wouldn't eat. I rocked him, talked to him, sang to him, changed his diaper. NOTHING WORKED. then two and a half hours later he fell asleep. Poor thing I didn't know what to do with him. Then I could not go to sleep for some reason, thinking about him, if he was going to sleep for a long time or not, etc. I finally fell asleep and at 2 am Shayna woke up asking for a drink of water. At 3 am Victor woke up and told me there was something on his bed. I checked it out and what happened is that he threw up all over his bed (upper bunk bed) and down the wall onto Tristan's bed. So I started cleaning up the whole mess trying not to wake Tristan up or anybody else. I took everything to the washer and did some unexpected laundry :)
Finally Victor ended up sleeping on he floor just in case he had to throw up again which he did, ALL OVER HIMSELF. I decided I wasn't going to be cleaning a stinky carpet today so I took him in the dining room and let him sleep on a blow up mattress and left him his throw up bucket by his side in case he had to throw up again (which he did). I did laundry again and he finally fell asleep. No throw up so far this morning. I stayed awake until it was time for Dan to go to work (4:30) and then he told me to go back to bed and try to sleep some. Aaron didn't wake up the entire time Victor was throwing up and I was cleaning, so it seemed like a good idea. But it didn't happen I could not stop thinking and turning and tossing. IT WAS HORRIBLE. I decided to get Aaron and feed him some in bed so that I could sleep with him, but he is too noisy so after feeding him I put him back in his bed. So by 6 am I finally fell asleep and the alarm woke me up at 7:30. Just in time to get Shayna dressed and feed to go to school. Doesn't it sound lovely?
If somebody had told me 7 year ago that this is what life was going to be like for me I would not have believed them. It is just unbelievable all the things we go thorough as parents. Some times I think it is too much and I can't handle it, but others I am amazed that I have the strength to do it. But in the end I love my kids to death and I am grateful to me their mom and to know that some day they will appreciate the sleepless nights they give me :)

Otro dia mas
Hoy me he levantado temprano como siempre despues de tener una noche muy larga. Ayer en la noche fui a Walmart a comprar leche y cosas que se necesitaban en la casa. Como solo me fui con el bebe disfrute mucho mi tiempo en la tienda. El bebe se durmio y pude ir pasillo por pasillo viendo que tienen de nuevo, que cosas no puedo comprar, que cosas quiero comprar y en fin... regresamos a la casa como a las 11 de la noche y el bebe se desperto, no pude guardar las cosas en el refrigeradod porque el bebe estaba llorando y no queria que despertara a resto de la familia. Cuando alfin se durmio pude ir y poner todo en su lugar. Luego tuve un pequeño snack y me dormi. Hoy en la mañana Dan vino abajo y me desperte y me fue a mi cama para poder dormir mas tiempo. Aaron se quedo en su cuna y pude dormir como 1 hora y media.
Shayna se fue temprano a la escuela y ahora solo estamos esperando a que Dan regrese del trabajo y espero que nos pueda hacer unas hamburguesas y hot dogs.
Tenemos que terminar nuestras compras de navidad pronto, no quiero pasar los ultimos dias comprando regalos cuando todo es super loco.
Nuestro arbol de navidad ya esta puesto en la sala y se ve un poco triste pero es bonito con las luces encendidas. Espero que el otro año podamos tener luces afuera de la casa, se ven bonitas las casas adornadas.
Bueno eso es todo por hoy.

My First Post
Well I am following Lisa's example and now I have my own blogger. Basically I did it so that I can keep track of what is going on in my life. I am so busy lately that I think this blog will help me write down at least just a little bit of what happens in a day or a week. Plus I'll post my pictures. I am really excited. I just have to let people know about it. Wish me luck.
