Decisions, decisions...

[lalicopa]

...hmmmm

Do I take sleeping Ella out of the swing down here in the basement and attempt taking her up to my bedroom where I can get a comfortable night's sleep? Or do I snuggle up on the couch and make the best of it, giving us both a better shot at actual *sleep*?

She has been a non-sleeper all day...I think she's testing me. I was up last night too and I'm beyond exhausted. She loves the swing down here and the ambient noise of the boiler room. I think my decision is made.

The couch it is. Stiff neck, here I come.

I also realized I never posted Ella's birth story - mostly because some funky shit went down and I wasn't really ready to share it. I'll edit it in the next few days and will post it then.

I'll also post some more pictures if her acne ever clears up! She's really beautiful, but quite the pizza face at the moment. Every picture I have taken in the last few days is super red and pimply. Eek. Vanity anyone?

In other news, my boy turned 5 today. I can't believe it. Five is so grown up. He's starting piano lessons tomorrow and is so truly excited. I can't wait to see how it goes. More on that in another post as well.

Five? Wow.

And I'd go for the couch too, FWIW.

Wow, Happy Birthday Lazlo!! I hope you get some *good* sleep tonight, Jen ;)

Get some rest while you can on the couch.

Last night I would have given my back teeth for Elise to have been able to sleep in the swing.

Happy birthday, Laszlo! Wow. Have fun at your piano lessons.

I'd pick the couch too. I remember Oscar only falling asleep in the car at that age; I'd beg Joel to drive around in circles while we both slept. :-)

Happy birthday, Lazlo!

Gah, my keyboard is sticking -- Laszlo!

let sleeping babies lie? Isn't that the saying?

I actually thought Laszlo was older than 5! Happy Birthday!

I had been wondering about your birth story, but had figured that something had happened that you weren't comfortable sharing yet. I'll look forward to reading it when you are ready to share.
