Are babies evil???

Well I don't mean evil in the demonic sense but what do you call a 15 month old who has decided that 3am is the new bedtime? For the last week baby girl has changed her bedtime to suit her much to the aggravation of the rest of the house, now I am used to slight variations in her sleep routine due to the fact that daddy is an OTR (over the road) truck driver, he's home for a week then gone for three and baby girl has taken notice of that, so when he leaves for a run the first couple of nights are hard but she usually settles back into the regular except for this week. So to try and remedy this daddy has offered his advice of getting her up at 9am regardless of what time she went to bed to try to get her back on track so today I have the meanest baby on the face of the earth right now, hateful and cranky, our usually lovey cat has gone into hiding for fear of the meanness that has overwhelmed our household, one can only hope that she settles down by the time we have to go to the grocery store or her older sisters will have to deal with sandwiches for dinner, now mind you that baby girl is number four on the kid chain and I am accustomed to the tantrums that can prevail in public but it doesn't make it any easier when after 19 years of being mom you still think other people are judging your parental abilities while trying to get a few groceries. My second cup of coffee has kicked in and it's now time to chase baby girl down and get her dressed.

Thank You Heather

check it out, I won the Twilight contest hosted by http://runningfromthelittlepeople.blogspot.com and I'm saying thanks, now I can read the book and see what all the fuss is about and then re-gift it to my oldest, she doesn't mind really, I love reading and will read anything I can get my hands on including the cereal box at the breakfast table.

Intros

even though it's on my profile I feel the need to introduce myself. I am a work from home mom of four girls. My oldest BB is a sophomore at MSU and a mommy herself to 2 year old Booger so that makes me a Gramma too, Missy is second in line and she has Aspberger's a form of autism, Chop is in the third position and she is my diva dancer, then there's baby girl my newest addition and at 15 months old she is testing my patience but she is also my gift, we thought we were done with kids and then low and behold at 41 I was pregnant, well being a work at home mom means I get to cut this short as I must actually work and find my truck driving husband a decent paying load to get him moving instead of sitting
