Sleep Deprivation

Sleep deprivation will do crazy things to a girl... and to her husband. We are better now. I suppose we've adjusted to 5 hours of sleep a night, in chunks of an hour and a half or so, but during the 3rd week, the baby poopie hit the fan.

Picture it. 2 a.m. 3rd feeding since we've gone to bed. Sofia is crying.

Scott! Can you bring me Fiona? No... wait.. that's not it. (Long, long pause while the correct name is searched for in the memory banks. Sadly it is not found.)

Um, just bring me the one that's not named Fiona.



Different night. 4 a.m.-ish. 4th feeding since we've gone to bed. Scott has just finished changing Reed and has brought him to me to trade him out for Sofia, who I've been feeding.

Babe. Hand me Reed.

Why?

I need to change him.

You just changed him. You just gave him to me.

No I didn't. I changed Sofia.

No, you changed Reed.

No, I didn't. I changed Sofia.

I promise. You just changed Reed.

Oh, that's right. I remember I saw a penis.


And they actually let us out of the hospital with these children...
