Sleep is for the weak

I haven't slept through the night in 9 months and I know this for a fact because Shay is 9 months old! She is the flirtiest baby in the history of the world. I have people smiling at us everywhere we go in reciprocation. First words are always so exciting, but I now have my second diva daughter spitting her first word at me in defiance. "MAMA!!!!!!!!" I only get this when she is tired of eating in her high chair, finished running in her hello kitty mobile, or pissed off that she is in the car seat. Today after breakfast I got a grumpy, "Night night, MAMA!!" I rushed her to her crib where she enjoy a few hours of nap time and I giggled to myself that I'm letting this tyrant control me. You are cute Shay Shay, but can we cut the 4 a.m. feeding  this month?
