Ok, so my kids have both been consistently sleeping through the night for well over a year now (and R turns 2 this weekend), and I've been pretty lucky that they usually sleep 11-12 hours straight through. Once in a while, a hellish encounter of before dawn episodes have occurred, but those, thankfully, are very few and far between.
But WHY does it seem one after procreating can NEVER feel like they're ever fully rested. Even with getting regular 7-8 hours a night myself... I struggle to drag myself out of bed in the morning, to great those OH so bushy-tailed, and bright eyed spawn of mine (ok, they totally didn't get that from either of us... we like to "lounge" lol). Luckily R still has his 1-2 hour nap in the afternoon, although C has stopped napping all together for a year now, it breaks up the day.
So I know that the past days of staying up 'til the crack of dawn, and sleeping until 3 in the afternoon are long gone, but in this zombie state, it feels as though I just might as well stayed up super late, to only wake up an hour or two later with the boys... *yawn*
Or, like the other parents say, I'll have an opportunity to catch up on my Zzz's in approximately 20 years :P
