When I take Jenna places, I don’t have to find a restroom for her. I change her when it’s convenient (or if I smell something which prompts me to MAKE it convenient), and I don’t have to listen to “I have to go potty” 10 seconds after we leave the house. I like that. I don’t even mind changing her diaper. It’s just the way it is. Maybe it’s easy for me to say this because she’s only (almost) 15 months old, but I think I may be a little sad when it’s time to potty train! We’re so far from that…maybe I’ll change my mind in a year. But everyone’s always saying they can’t wait until their kids are out of diapers, so I wonder if I’m the only crazy who feels this way.
So, I’m still not sleeping. This is crazy. I’ve tried everything. We even rearranged our furniture because I read that some people sleep better with their head facing North. When we went out of town, I slept though. I thought maybe it was because I take my vitamin at night. That wasn’t it. I thought it had to do with caffeine, working out, not winding down enough, temperature, or pillow thickness. Nope, none of those. It still boils down to if I take a Lunesta I sleep. If I don’t take one, I don’t sleep. I can’t just take Lunesta forever. Bleh.

I am totally with you on the diaper thing. I am kind of lazy so I might just skip the whole potty training thing altogether and hope Ellie figures it out on her own (she might not be all that popular in kindergarten).
Sucks about the sleeping thing. A good friend of mine had some serious sleep issues as well and he went to a sleep clinic where they monitored him all night. His circadian rhythm was off and now he is on like this set sleep schedule.

Oh my gosh, I TOTALLY agree with you! I am kind of dreading that constant “I have to go potty NOW” demand! sigh…
