Not just ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZs

It is amazing how much the lack of sleep can effect your life.   It will effect so many different areas.
The trip to Kwajalein can take a toll on your body traveling for 2.5 days, jumping through time zones and even crossing the date line.   This is our 4th trip and we have been able to handle it it pretty easily until we get home.  The past 2 trips Chloe will get up 2-3 times a night for about a week.  We figured it out this time.   It is not the jet lag.  She gets "spoiled" having her brother as a roommate for 2 weeks and she is lonely and her sense of security gets a little rattled.   It is really sweet but by day 3 and 4, mommy is over it and there is no more gentle coaching back to bed.  She then decides she better stay put or meet the wrath of "midnight mommy"
I am soooooo thankful to have Baby Wise Babies.   This momma could not have handled it.   My kiddoes were sleeping through the night at 6 weeks and to this day, even if they are sick, they sleep.
