Since I can't remember the funny story from this morning, I will take the opportunity to show you what a typical day is like with The AtHomeTrio.
AtHomeDaddy - up at 6:55
The Talker - up at 7:15 to watch the end of Sesame Street and eat Spiderman cereal!
The Princess - up at 7:35
8:00 The Talker watches DragonTales on PBS
8:15 Chow time for The Princess
8:30 Backyard time. She swings, He goes nuts, I scoop poop
10:15 Puzzles and books for him, She rolls on the rug
11:15 Chow time for The Princess and Lunch for The Talker
11:30 Run to the store for Halloween costume ears and tail
12:30 Nap time for The Princess and Lazytown for him
1:00 The boy and I play cars and trucks in the living room
1:05 Naptime for The Talker
1:07 She is up (No rest for Daddy, today [or lunch])
1:15 Chow time for The Princess
1:30 The Talker is still awake, playing in his room
2:00 The Talker is still awake, but in bed
2:15 That boy is determined not to nap today
2:20 He is asleep (Thanks to my buddy, Mr Benadryl)
3:00 She is asleep again (Thanks to Mr Infant Drugs)
3:02 AtHomeDaddy mows the front yard
3:40 Back in the house, before the pediatric drugs wear off.
3:41 She wakes up to the sound of my butt hitting the couch.
3:42 She practices rolling, and balancing things on her head
4:20 The Boss Lady is home
4:25 The Benadryl wears off, The boy awakes
5:30 Mowing the backyard
6:30 Neighborhood playtime at The AtHomeFamily Compound.
The timeline might be a little off, but this is a pretty good snapshot of our day. Scary, isn't it? And the worst part, I never did remember The Talker's witty comment...

Oh Nervous night!
"... looked him the eye, Let my people go!"
"I'm working hard to pay the rent,
and support my goverment,
building highways and railroad tracks..."
"And they danced,
Like a wave on the ocean..."
I have a cassette of an album they made before they became really big Hooters, I mean, before they be made it big.
Get a freaking life...
I gave my kid benadryl because he has allergies, and I gave him the appropriate dose. It is only a bonus that he sleeps. Shut up and go away! But thanks for the blog fodder.
Lucidream,
Thanks for the affirmation I assume that if The Boy is not sleeping well, then something is wrong. (as in, he might be getting sick). I know how my son sleeps when he feels good and I know how he sleeps when he feels sick. I know this because I have spent almost every hour with him since he was 8 months old. That is why I feel qualified to decide when he needs medications.
