Just To Sleep A Little Sleep

It's not that I have forgotten to post over the last couple days, I wanted to, but this kid has left us...
T-I-R-E-D!

Mike, Rooney and I have a pretty busy schedule during the week. Seems we're always rushing to something (work, playgroup or gym). However, the weekends are days we look forward to kind of just take out time, relax and maybe sleep a little longer. Well, not this weekend. Rooney is going through something. I don't know why it is, but he is constantly waking up. He's absolutely exhausted, throwing himself around, falling over in his highchair but he is fighting sleep and when he finally does fall asleep he wakes up very shortly afterward.

At times this can be comical and sad but when it's 2:30 a.m. it is just annoying. We look like a family of the walking dead. Yesterday Rooney and I had plans to go to a playgroup. We ended up missing it because it took 2 hours to get Rooney down for his 1 hour nap. Normally I would have just gone and let him fall asleep in the car but we did have plans later in the afternoon so it was imperative that he slept at some point earlier in the day.

It's hard to be frustrated with him (except at 2:30 a.m.) because when he wakes up he's not a screaming mess. He just wants to be up moving around.

I would go on but I'm too tired.
