Last night was so bad, sleep wise. Gabriel needs to learn that sleep is a good thing and that Mommy and Daddy need it to function and stay sane.

So, Gabriel was spazzing out big time last night and we knew there was no way we'd get him to sleep without driving around for a bit. So, we headed out and about and an hour and a half later he was out cold in the back of the car. We got back home, laid him down, and within minutes he was up and wide awake again. We tried him in our bed, and all he did was jump around. We tried him in his room, and all he did was play. We tried him in the living room, and all he did was run around. He just did not want to go to sleep. He didn't fall asleep until after midnight.

When he finally did fall asleep, we put him in his own bed. Of course, he ended up coming in and climbing into bed with us in the middle of the night.

I am completely exhausted today. I can't wait until my Mom is out here next week (Rob has a business trip to Chicago and she's coming to help me with Gabriel). She's been dubbed "Grandma Pillow" because somehow, she can get Gabriel to go to sleep easily and at a reasonable time.

You Are Fire

Oooh! Fire! You have a very stubborn personality and are very intuitive. You are constantly making imprints! You often yell out, but sometime are not heard! This bothers you and causes you to lash out at some people you love. But, when you're calm, you can be an ok leader. And when you're in an argument, you have the I'm-not-goin-down-without-a-fight attitude,and that's often helpful! And you love Winter because it gives you reason to sit in front of a hot, roaring fire! Not to mention perfect weather!
