"Eh! ..... Eh!"
Stage 1: DENIAL
Maybe it's just static... or a far-off drive-by shooting... or the monitor is picking up some other random baby in the neighborhood...
"Ick! Eh! Ick!"
Stage 2: ANGER
Ohhhhh, fuddddggggge... definitely my kid...
"Ehhhhhhhhhh? Ick! Ehhhhhhh???!!!"
Stage 3: BARGAINING
Penny, If you give me one more hour (FIVE MORE MINUTES???) of sleep, I will give you extra tickles in the morning. And a pony.
"EHHHHHH! EHHHHHHHH!!!!???"
Stage 4: DEPRESSION
I am never going to sleep a full night ever again. Ever. When she is in college, I will have to travel to her dorm at 3AM, give her a glass a milk, throw her over my shoulder and walk her around the room until she falls back asleep...
"EhhhhhhhhhhWAHHHHHHHHHH!"
Stage 5: ACCEPTANCE
Okay, I'm up.
Rinse, repeat.
It was a rough night...
But we were all smiles in the morning. And she still got extra tickles... call me a push over, I guess.
lolz...i know the feeling all too well, except with a husband loudly reminding me that she's crying...like I can't hear her.
