The curse of Tuesdays

Today was another really relaxing day! We all didn't do much of anything for once in a long time! I did manage to clean the house and make a mean pork roast with chicken honey Dijon onion sauce for dinner with pasta!It tasted really good and there is enough for left overs for lunch tomorrow! YUM!Audrey was in a really good mood today! Recently, mostly this week, she has been barely sleeping. Our usual routine is she gets fed around midnight and then I put her to bed. She sleeps for 6 hours and then wakes up for another feeding which lasts about an hour and that includes diaper changes. After she is fed and changed and we talk for more a minute she is ready to go back to sleep until her next feeding around 10 or 11.Well everything was going great and then Tuesday rolls around. We get her up for her usual 6 am feeding, get her changed and fed and put back in her crib. Except when we layed her down in her crib with her Binky, her stuffed bunny and her mobile going, she throws a huge fit. I simply thought she was fighting going back to bed which she usually does but even after I picked her up and cuddled her she was not ready to sleep. I was frustrated to say the least because after she is fed at midnight I usually prepare her food for her 6 am feeding and do a little reading in bed before sleeping myself. So to say I was tired would be an understatement. I have never had trouble with her before with going back to bed. So I grabbed her swing, put her lights and music on and turned on Dora on the television. This worked, but only for a little bit, she started to get really whiny sitting there so I thought maybe she was ready to finally go back to sleep, MAN WAS I WRONG. When I went to lay her in her crib she through an even bigger fit then the time before. Thoroughly cranky her and I both did this little song and dance for about 7 hours until FINALLY at 1pm she fell asleep on our bed. I breathed a sigh of relief but it didn't last long becuase an hour later she was up again, this short nap was out of the norm becuase usually she sleeps for about 2 to 3 hours. She ended up going back to bed at 3ish for about another hour before we had to leave to go to Ambers birthday dinner at her house! Tuesday was the first time Audrey had ever thrown a fit like that and I think it is a sign of things to come. Luckily she was back on routine today even though her nap was not as long as usual. I think she is going through a growth spurt which means I better get sleep when I can becuase im starting to feel the same way we did when we first brough her home! Thankgoodness for Dora and noise making swings and lily pads! Got any tips for a baby who wont sleep? I woud LOVE to hear them and try it out!
