I have decided after much reflecting, that Natalie must be part werewolf. This child is so happy and full of life all day, but as soon as the sun sets she turns into a little monster.
We have been completely spoiled by good sleep since we moved to Issaquah, minus a few horrible nights here and there. But compared to what we were dealing with before, I have to say we've been spoiled. Most nights all three kids sleep through the night. This is a far cry from where we were just a short year ago when Natalie was up 2 or 3 times a night.
For some reason, Natalie's sleep habits have taken a turn for the worse again. It's not horrible by any means, but it's definitely not what we were getting used to. Some nights she'll wander into our room, which is just fine. I pull her into to bed with us and then after a bit of tossing and turning she goes to back to sleep. This is rare.
Her usual routine is to wake up screaming, and demanding things. If you give her what she demands (which we do to get her to be quiet and not wake up the other kids), she suddenly doesn't want it. It's absurd and so confusing. Eventually she'll calm down, but man, this kid makes us bonkers!
Here's hoping the werewolf side of her decides to hibernate for the winter.
