Argh, I know how you feel. My daughter is the same age as Madison, and she has also started waking in the middle of the night, and I also find it hard to sleep when I know she is awake. I think she has slept worse this week than she did as a newborn!
I really hope Madison starts sleeping better soon. Like, tonight-soon.

Dang, you are definitely more tired than me. I don’t have a toddler and only the construction guy from the insurance agency is coming tomorrow and I couldn’t give an eff what he thinks about my dust bunnies. I hope you get some quality shuteye. And I so know what you mean about people TRYING to be quiet… I swear then you just listen five times as much while you are still not sleeping. Condoleances.

The house inspection is about the bones and structure - right?
Not about if you are lying semi comatose in the middle of the living room floor with a toddler sitting on you.
I feel quite capable to hand out this wisdom because after driving myself to distraction cleaning the house for the SW visit - she didn’t even go into our bathroom.

What does that have to do with your situation? Nothing. Sadly that doesn’t seem to stop me from holding forth.

Naps are the best. Hoping you get at least one.
Lisa has the plan. If you can hand off kids to someone more awake and happier, do so!
