Score: 3 to 1

Three nights (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) Halle woke-up shortly after midnight to play. Yup. Play. Between midnight and two she prefers to play with stacking cups and talk to herself. From 2 to four she likes squeal and roll on the floor. Then she likes to have her bottle and go back to sleep until whenever! Last night we started to even the score. The first thing we did was look at a calendar and figure out which day it was...Monday. Then we devised a plan to limit her morning nap and to keep her up waaaaaay past her bedtime. She woke-up briefly around 12:13 but then fell back to sleep after a few minutes. We ended up waking her around eight. Alan and I didn't sleep that much because we kept waiting for her to cry and wake-up for the 'play date'. Thank heaven we won one. We are trying the same strategy tonight. I hope it works. I need five straight hours tonight. Alan is crashed on the couch.

They think just because they try to make me look cute and cuddly that I will actually sleep!! HA
