Lets train

It's Tuesday & I'm feeling random.

Actually, I am feeling better.

I had a fever all weekend. 

I even had it yesterday, but I still went to school because I have no more sick days this year (I used them all for my maternity leave). 

But, honestly, it is such a pain getting a sub, I would have had to go in and make lesson plans anyways, so it's just easier to suffer through the school day & teach even when you don't feel good.

I went to bed Sunday night & had the chills and hot fever flashes. 

When I woke up Monday morning, I still had the chills, so I took the hottest shower ever (which isn't good when you have a fever, but I was so cold, but hot at the same time) 

When I got to school, my body was mad. During 1st period, my fever finally broke, I was sweating profusely. I had the door to my classroom open so that the cold winter air would cool off my classroom. I was a hot mess. My students were freezing. Good times. Ha! 

The good news is my fever is gone, but my cough & sinus pressure is still here. 

 He has been sleeping 8-10 hours a NIGHT. Without waking up!!!

The girls were HORRIBLE sleepers. Didn't do that until 10 months (Claire) and 11 months (Kate).

The only thing I have done differently? Stopped stressing about it.

With the girls I was DETERMINED to get them on a schedule, blah, blah, blah.

I read every sleep book known to man with the girls.

With Luke, I was trying to get him on a schedule at 4 months because he was on track to be a horrible sleeper (in fact he was worse than the girls at that age) 

Finally, I just decided to give up on the schedule, he is the 3rd kid, we are on the go more, he isn't going to have a schedule, I am not going to worry about it, he probably won't sleep through until he is 10/11 months old,  etc, etc, etc. 

And, then...the craziest thing happened. He figured it out on his own & started sleeping through every night and has been doing this for almost a month.

PRAISE THE LORD.
