Daddy thought he could put Taiden’s PJ’s on… Not the case.
Silly Daddy! You think this is gonna be easy.
But I won’t go down with out a fight! (Notice my sister trying to put his feet in the PJ’s…)
I’m escaping! Muhahahahaha
Damn I’ve been caught… well that didn’t work out to well..
The restraints used to put on the PJ’s (totally did this just for the picture.. He was like what’s going on.. he wasn’t even moving anymore haha.)
Sleeping peacefully. In the end.. Mommy got the job done… Good try Dad.

Crying It Out September 4, 2008
Taiden started sleeping through the night early on. And by that I don’t mean sleeping from 11-5:30. I mean 9:30/10:00-6:00 AM. And it was awesome! Then he cut his two bottom teeth.. Not so awesome. Then he started doing okay again… then he stopped. AGAIN. “Recently” (and I use that loosely, as in the last 2 months) he began waking up at least 3 times a night… for the most part if I gave him the binki he went straight back down.. but there were those times when he would want me to hold him, and cuddle and walk and he’d be wide a fucking wake. Laughing and shit. Trying to play. But as soon as I put him down… BOOM. All hell broke loose. Because he didn’t want to just be awake he wanted to PLAY. So I would stand there and rock him for 15+ minutes 3+ times a night. Why was I standing you ask? Because we are slackers and STILL haven’t gotten a chair for his room. Needless to say I was exhasted. Also ‘recently’ (once again with the 2 months) he’s been standing up, so while before putting him down was relatively easy now he wants to stand up. I’ll put him down kiss kiss, pat pat walk away.. And he gets up and starts LAUGHING. Then. The laughing turns to crying, and SCREAMING. I was getting pretty sick of bed time lasting an hour AND the waking up at night… I ‘tried’ to let him Cry It Out. But I couldn’t do it.
Until this weekend. I decided nope.. I’m not doing this shit anymore take your little ass to sleep. The first night was hard. I went in every 5 minutes for about half an hour. The second night equally as bad. The 3rd night I went in once. Last night… NOT AT ALL. He got up halfway (before I was out the door) and cried a bit… Then.. silence. I checked. DEAD ASLEEP (so much so I checked his breathing, but I do that alot so…) He also has slept through the night again these past few nights. Granted he was waking at about 8-8:30 and now it’s 6 again… This is once again AWESOME. 9-6= 9 straight hours of Taiden sleeping. YES!
Now it’s only been 2 days… but so far CIO worked wonders…
Bullshit systems September 4, 2008
My friend Jessica. She is 20 years old (the same age as me) and has 2 little girls (one who is 3 weeks younger than Taiden). She works at Smith’s in the gas booth. 10.50 and hour… and she was only getting about 12 hours a week (her boss is a bitch). Why was she told to go out and find a daycare and she would get help paying for it so she could switch positions and get more hours, then after she did all this she told she makes to much?
ARE you fucking kidding me?
10.50 and 12 hours a week… that equals 504.00 BEFORE taxes. That is not enough money to put even one of her children in daycare, let alone that and pay her rent, and for her car, and buy food, etc. WTF is going on here? Even if she was able to work 40 hours a week she would only be getting about 1680.00 BEFORE taxes. After my approximation of childcare (the cheapest I found in our area) she would have 620 dollars left (and this is if she DIDN’T have any taxes taken out). Which would barely cover the rest of her bills (she’s pretty far in debt as it is just trying to provide for her girls).
The system fucking sucks.
Bullshit.
I don’t even know the point of this.. I’m just mad.
