Last night

Well...after our long day yesterday, bedtime wasn't horrific. It took about 20 minutes to get them to sleep and there was some crying, but nothing too bad. So, by 7pm, all the kids were asleep and Michael and I got to relax.

Until 10pm when all hell broke loose. Miranda started screaming which woke up Elizabeth who started screaming. Which woke up Parker who started screaming. 10pm and everyone was screaming. We pulled Parker out of there fast and tried to get the girls back to sleep. No luck. So we let them scream. And scream they did. Miranda stood at the door banging on it, trying to open it for a good 20 minutes. Just when she gave up and went back to bed, Elizabeth got out of bed. It was like a finely timed ballet. So Elizabeth stood there screaming and banging on the door for 30 minutes until she finally gave up and went back to bed. Then they all slept until 6am. 7-10, and then 11-6. 10 hours with no naps? That pretty much sucks.
