Catchin' ZZZZs With Jiggles

Okay, since Christmas it has been on rare occasion that Acacia sleeps through the night. In fact, it's not that she just wakes up once or twice, it's more like she wakes up more than she sleeps. The only thing that we could think of to help all of us get some sleep is to make a bed on the floor for her and for one of us. This way when she wakes up screaming every 15 minutes we can just pat her back until she falls back asleep. Talk about exhausting. Tony has been a huge help by staying with her on some nights. Between teething with 3 of her molars and having several rounds of some nasty cold it's been a six weeks from. . .well, let's just say somewhere down south! Actually, we've been really blessed to endure, but seeing as we wil be having a newborn in the house in a short 6 months, Acacia better get back to sleeping through the night PRONTO!!


One morning she actually ended up on our bed snuggling very closely with Jiggles. She loves this little bear. I just think it's precious how tightly she's holding him. Luca never really slept with or was attached to anything, so this is new to me.

I understand this all too well! My oldest still comes to see us a few times a night. Sofie is getting four teeth right now so she has been rather cranky too. Adorable picture. Loved reading all the new updates.
