Seriously - How cute is my niece Jocelyn. She is adorable - and look, she loves her Uncle Eric. These pictures really made my day (Thanks Nikki). Only 2 months till vacation and we get to see them. I'm ready to go now. I'm glad I got these photos because I was so tired, out of it, grouchy this morning - all due from lack of sleep. I've never really been a good sleeper, even with the assistants of Sleepy Time Tea, PM Aspirin and the occassional sleeping pill - nothing. I'm averaging maybe 5 hours of sleep a night and that's interrupted sleep with that. Between the animals (Riley barks every morning when Kurt get's home around 3:00 am), Olivia waking up from sleeping and needing some comfort, the cats going crazy running around the house in the middle of the night plus my crazy obsession of being afraid I'm going to oversleep - even though that has never happened. Lately though, and by lately - I would say the last year or so, it's gotten worse. It's now affecting me physically - the purple bags under my eyes, lack of energy and my memory lasting only seconds. I know it goes with the territory of having a child but man, I'm just exhausted....
