sleep problems

i read it and heard it a million times before caleb..."sleep now because you won't get a full night's rest for a while."

i really wish i had the kind of baby who freakishly slept through the night at 3 months old...but i don't.

brynna still wakes up at least twice a night. she hasn't been drinking as much when she wakes up, so we're thinking that we need to let her just cry because she obviously doesn't need the milk.

caleb has been refusing to take a nap in the day. he'll go in the room and lie down, but won't sleep. late afternoon or early evening rolls around and he'll start to zonk out...even if he's sitting up in a chair. we try to give him a bath to wake him up, but the past two days even that hasn't helped.

right now, at 7:24 pm, he's crashed out on the couch...and has been crashed out for about an hour and a half. yesterday he took a late nap...we tried to wake him up after half an hour by showering him, but he just wailed throughout the shower and proceeded to pass out again once his shower was over. after we woke him up again, he did not want to go back to sleep until after 11. today i'm going to not wake him up and see how that works. he didn't even eat dinner. we'll see what's going to happen.
