Let me start off this ridiculous story by saying that Makenna has recently gotten worse with her sleeping. Instead of going 4-6 hours sleeping at night she has been waking up about every 2 hours. It takes atleast 1/2 hour between the feeding and changing her diaper then I wont fall asleep until she is asleep so sometimes Im missing up to an hour during each feeding. Sadly, you get use to walking around like a zombie...most times.
The other day started as one of those restless nights. Awesome. I always sit up at the top of the bed, against the wall to feed her. But lately its hard for me to keep my eyes open while feeding her so I have developed this fear of falling asleep during a feeding. Apparently I have transferred that fear to my dreams. Although I dont remember the dream- I do remember waking up to a warm body under the covers, against my leg that I knew was not my husband. My immidate and only reaction- "OH My GOSH, Makenna is in the bed!". I quickly fly out of bed, go pick up the sleeping, warm body. I held it up in the air about 1/2 arms length away, staring into those confused eyes. I was just as confused myself. Then it hit me. I looked over to her bed, she was comfortably snoozing away in there. I was holding our half awake dog. So confused and unhappy that his deep sleep had been interupted for no reason than his Moms insanity. I did a half giggle, too tired to fully laugh at my idiotness (makin up words) appologized to him, put him back under the covers and got back into bed. Poor Neik.
On another note- I know some of you may be looking for some pics of the most adorable baby human/ giraffe ever... aka Makenna during her first Halloween. BUT I left my memory card at my parents so when I get that back from them I will be uploading some pics!
Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween and weekend!
