Sleep deprived

I hardly slept. All night, every time she moved she cried. Maybe she's too tired, what being out all day yesterday. Moreover she had her little rompers (something like gymboree) class in the afternoon. At 24 months, my little madam just started these activity classes. (I didn't have much time before as I was a full time working mum).

I didn't mean to keep her out of the house all day yesterday. U see, we just recently bought a condo and it's currently being renovated so straight after her class I had to rush to the ceramic tile showroom to select my kitchen and bathroom tiles. To be honest, that didn't really take long... We were there probably about an hour or so, which totally surprised me... I expected to be all confused and fickle about colour and texture and whatnot. But I guess after living in a rented house with shit bathrooms for 5 years, you tend to be less fussy about colour.

The problem was she had her 'afternoon' nap only at 5.30pm... When she woke at 6.30ish, she was in one of her moods. Not good. Have to make it a point to stick to her routine. I notice on the days she sticks to her routine, she is somehow better behaved and much much easier to handle. I do in general try to stick to a regular routine with her which typically begins at 8.45am and ends at 10.30pm. Even on days that the husband and I go for our regular mall fix I try to ensure we're back home for Megan's nap time.

Alas, we are all human and days like yesterday does not happen all that often. So hopefully today I am able to follow her routine and tonight I will have a good nights sleep.
