Having three kids has been a blast..but let me tell you about our sleep last night. (By the way, we expect Grant to wake up at night. Logan and Madison have been sleeping through the night for, well, years.)
9:30 p.m. Grant eats and goes to bed.
10:00 Joe and I go to bed.
11:00 Madison needs to go potty.
12:30 Grant wakes up to eat.
1:30 Madison wakes up screaming--really screaming--for mom. Joe goes to see what's up. He has a hard time opening her door because she's standing behind it. He finally gets it open, she takes off running, leaps over the two steps that separate her room from the rest of the second floor, and crashes into Logan's closed door head first. She's still screaming. She comes and sits by me, I ask her what is wrong, and she tells me she hit her head. We calm her down and she gets back in her bed.
3:00 Logan wakes up yelling to us that he can't find his CARS book. We tell him we'll find it in the morning.
3:30 Madison needs to go potty again. (Note to self: no more drinks before bed.)
3:37 Grant wakes up and needs to eat.
5:00 Joe's alarm clock goes off. Time to start a new day.
SOOOO....whose kids are they? Today Logan stole Madi's blanket and ran around the house while Madison trailed him, screaming, "Give it back." I asked him why he liked to tease his sister. His answer: "Daddy likes to tease people and I like to tease people." So there you have it.

YIKES. I would not be able to function if I had to get up that many times! Hope that was just a one-time deal!
Sorry about the difficult night! Get some rest whenever you can--which I know isn't easy with several bambini running around!
oh my gosh!!! okay, it sounds funny, but it seems like you guys would be exhausted! Yes, hopefully that doesn't happen again!
if i would have known that would happen when i had 3 kids, i may have waited a few more years and now i'm almost to #4 and scared to death...that sounds like our house about 3 nights of the week-why do they do that, it's always on the nights before something has to happen the next day, not just another day...i am so sorry you had to go through that, hopefully yours learn faster than mine not to do it again :)
