I feel like this will be me! My oldest (not yet 3) still gets up 1-3x every night (once this week she got up at 2:30am and stayed up...till 11:30am when she FINALLY passed out, I may have forced it), and my "baby" at 16.5 months is up 3-5x EVERY night, sometimes she gets up as early as 5:30.
No, it's cool, kids, mommy functions fine on 3-4 hours of sleep a pot of coffee and later a bottle of wine! 'Sall good.
This is my nightmare my 3 year old wakes up all the time still we are hoping he's over it by 4

Hm. I didn't know there were even two options. I would prefer over-the-ear headphones simply because I find them to be more comfortable than earbuds. With active noise cancellation, what kind of sounds do they introduce? Honestly, I just want a decent pair that enable me not to hear people. But when I look at Amazon, reviews are all over the place.
You don't hear the sounds they introduce because they're only there to cancel out the other sounds resulting in you hearing nothing, it's practically magic. But if you want active noise cancellation, you're gonna have to pay a hefty amount because of the technology inside them. As far as I know, most of them go from $300 and up.

If you can't shell out that kind of dough, I'd try to find a very very comfortable pair of earbuds. I use to hate them too, but I found smaller eartips work a lot better for me and now I can wear them for hours on end.

Maybe one day I will get sleep. Mine doesn't wake me up every night now, she just comes downstairs and watches tv LOUDLY which is right outside my room.

Hm. Looks like I'll have to start saving. 'Cause yeah, I definitely want something that actively cancels out noise. Living with an almost 13-year-old niece, I want them for my sanity.

We tried. She is not the type who can CIO. She slept in our bed (she would ONLY sleep ON us EVER at the beginning, reflux, colic...) then I tried to side car the crib and *I* was in it most nights. Then when little sister was born (that's a freaking miracle in and of itself :wink: ) we moved her to a mattress on her floor with dad sleeping with her most of the night because I had the baby. She has her own room, her own bunk bed with a rail, black out curtains, a sound machine...and she still needs to fall asleep WITH one of us next to her (preferably me--her preference not mine!) then she sleep mostly 5-6 hours before waking up and finding us. Her Dr said she's too smart, too busy learning to sleep. :arghh::cautious:
Please, can I have a sleeper?!

I may do one more round of quoting. You all move too dam fast.

I'm still shocked that NONE of you told me if I put all the quotes in Spoiler if everyone would see that I quoted them individually. Shame on You.
Also, I don't think i reached the max quote cap.

Every time I tell myself, " I'm gonna read the instructions carefully, follow them to a T, and do it right the first time". Every time I manage to fuck it up somehow.
Everyone "Fucks it up somehow." Forrest says "It happens"

"How the fuck do I still have more than half of the screws they gave me left over?"
Have you ever tried to assemble ikea furniture with a tiny manual with 6 point font in French? That's how it usually happens. That's my story.

Those are just extras :wink:
Indeed. You dam Genius!

Alright guys. With Atticus at his dad's it is just too damn lonely and sad here. Going to go hang out with some family for a bit and try not to think about those 9 Nelsons I did that may or may not be rejected :fearscream:
Hope you have a Great Time! I also hope for all your approved and everyone else Hits. Shit, I'm on that boat too. Please Approve.

i couldn't get one of the screws in so i'll just pray i don't fall off my chair and die
You won't fall off. Believe. You're doing it Peter. Wait, this is not a movie!

Ghost Awakening @JustAGhost

London Has Fallen. I thought it was okay but felt it still needed something.
That was a terrible movie. I heard the book was great. I put a whole Coffee Cake in my Frappe or a Brownie. But it is not for everyone.

Wuddup night crew? What are we working on today?
I'm working on trying to get all this .0 writing excerpts I write onto the forum quickly. My hourly blows!

Getting stones AF because the hubs challenged me to smoke out and have a taco eating contest
Dam! I hope you Kick His Ass!

nate hodges ruined shark tank
Why would you do those Hits and ruin Shark Tank! (not a question but statement) I wonder if their is a New episode today?

dat quote wall
Beautiful isn't it? Congrats, you made it to be quoted. Celebrate and don't feel left out like Pleco Pleco. Poor little rat! Every time I see his avie, I imagine that it will turn into a Ratatouille one.

/me just walked in the door

/me starts looking for admin setting that sets max number of replies per post
Geez, I'm testing this for free. Come christmas, I hope for a nice gift. Admin, what happened to you. Don't appreciate the good that will come from this?

Where is sassyy? I miss said individual!

How dare you? I think it may be time for a new Princess!

I'm not gonna lie, I'm a little hurt that I wasn't quoted in this post.
Don't be hurt. Go and change your avie to Ratatouille. I would greatly appreciate it. It will bring a great smile. Also, did I mention, I believe it is ONE of the Greatest New Disney Releases.

here ya go feel better pal
Thank You Dear Friend for picking up the slack!

Oh I will be up until who knows when, because my 19 year old son is out with friends and it just doesn't feel right until momma bird has all her birdies in the nest. It still feels weird knowing my daughter won't be coming home to sleep in her bedroom unless it's to visit. Just struggling a little with my birdies growing up tonight.
You're an AWESOME MOM! I just wanted to say that.

I thought I would be out of word by now, but I guess not. Someone please help!

Please PM Me with the answer to the following question: If I quote member and place in spoiler, will they know I quoted them?

Just going to be honest it doesn't even end when they are adults. I texted my daughter tonight to tell her to remember to take care of something. She's married. :D

My son just came in to get his xbox remote so that means it will be a late night or he will crash at his buddy's house. He will probably remember to text about 2 am.

IDK if this is a real thing but maybe you could go to places like best buy or, god forbid, the mall, to test a few pair to see if any of them work for you. I wouldn't normally suggest going outside but it will be noisy there and you can do a good test.
