I am super behind on the blog b/c life and well Christmas prep, Thanksgiving prep, etc. etc. etc…but I had to post this because it is super emotional and monumental for me.

Last night was the first night in Toobs nearly 3 years of life that we did not sleep together. We are dealing with a virus that hit Sissy and then me and Toobs, and now Rae Rae. It is a stuffy nose, head cold type thing and kept Toobs up nearly all night the 2 nights ago. Since it kept Toobs up, it also kept Momma up. We were watching animal videos, looking at the stars, and playing games all night b/c as soon as we laid down our nose would get stuffy.

Anyway, I woke up yesterday after about an hour sleep and felt like i got hit by a truck. By the end of the day Will knew i needed sleep and Toobs took a late nap and wasn’t tired. He convinced her to watch some shows with him and he told her stories. She fell asleep in the other room with him, and I woke up at 4am panicked that someone stole Toobs. Thankfully i felt too crappy to be emotional about it, and the good night sleep did me a world of good. I peeked in, saw them, and then quietly tip toed back into my room with a big sprawling bed and continued to sleep for another 3 hours.

Today Toobs is denying the sleepover happened. I did miss the little twerp…even if she does keep me up all night with her shifting and random noises.
