Not Me Monday

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.

I would never let my two year old get up at 3:30 in the morning and stay awake watching TV until 5:00 in the morning because her brother was yelling in the room next door. Nope not me! I would then never let her sleep in until 10:00 in the morning because she was awake for an hour and a half in the middle of the night. She would never fall asleep on her brothers bed later that same day because she was so exhausted. This never happens in my house! Nope not me!




I also would not let her sleep on a soaking wet pillow with no pillow cover that you see in the picture. Colby's cup of water dumped on it in the middle of the night. He was soaked it was soaked the bed was soaked. I wouldn't just take the pillow case cover off and let him fall back asleep on it instead of getting up and getting a new pillow and pillow case. Not me I wouldn't do that.





I also wouldn't put Colby on the floor that same evening and walk out of his room leaving him to scream for the next half an hour. (Of course I checked on him every few minutes. I knew nothing was happening to him since he was still screaming at me!)
This is how I found him a half hour later watching Diego laughing and calmly relaxing with his hands behind his head. I would never do that nope not me!

He was quite mad at me again and again I don't know why. I think since we are playing with his meds again it's not working. That's a whole other post but I'll try and summarize. We added three medications at once and tried to reduce one all at the same time. So I don't know if it's one of the one's we've added or the one we are trying to take away that is making him so upset. Today has been a much better day though since I took him off of his clonidine patch and just gave it to him through his feeding tube. I think I might have found the culprit but I'm not admitting it yet.



And finally I would not at the very last minute two weeks after my daughters birthday throw her a very hastily put together birthday party. (Dang that was a mouthful!) It turned out to be a huge success and she said she had a wonderful time but I would most definitely plan things out a little bit more in advance and make sure I had things a little bit more organized. After making her a chocalate cake with strawberries in the middle layer and marshmallow butter cream frosting I wouldn't forget to put the cake in the refrigerator for the next 4 hours so that the frosting melted all down the sides and the strawberries on top fell off. I wouldn't do that nope not me! Half an hour before the party starts I wouldn't look at the cake realize what I had done and swipe the frosting back up the side and put it in the freezer to set quickly. That would be silly. I wouldn't do that, or would I?
