Here's the thing when you have kids...none of your time is ever really your own...EVER! Not even sleeping time. I am not opposed to letting the kids sleep in our bed, but I am not really for it either. I guess it is best just to do whatever you need to do to get some sleep. The problem is when (for the sake of sleep) you let them crawl up and stay in your bed...you sleep like crap!
When they're infants sometimes it is just easier (specially if you are the food source) to have them right next to you. When they are sick...for sure they can snuggle up. But when they are older and just want company and to kick my side...I don't really enjoy family time this way. Leah has been sneaking in more frequently. Last night she kicked me from 1am till morning. It's like, you kicked me for 9 months when I was pregnant, that's about all I can take! At times we have all four of us in bed and Dodger at the bottom. One time Bryce rolled over and off the bed and kept sleeping!
So this morning at breakfast I told Leah, no more sleeping in my bed. I explained she has her own pretty bed. I asked why she doesn't like sleeping in there. Her response:
"There's no other people in my bed."
Well, there you have it! Guess I'll only be kicked in my sleep for a couple more years anyway!
