Potty Training and Teething

I'm still trying to find my stride with this blog. I have another blog that is a glorified journal that isn't interesting to anyone besides me and the grandparents. I started this blog to post about things that I find interesting but don't necessarily want to post on my family blog. I'm just trying to find the balance of what to include here. 
I'm sure no one was wondering, but currently I am lying in my bed afraid to fall asleep. The most frustrating thing I've found with being a mother is trying to get the kids to sleep through the night. Logan never did. He's 3 and he still wakes up once every few days. Summer used to sleep great but lately she has been struggling. 
She's 8 months old and tonight is the first night I've been afraid to fall asleep. So I guess that is a success in and of itself. I had that feeling many, many times before Logan turned the ripe old age of 8 months and many, many times after. Woe is me!
Something I won't be doing tonight. Sigh. 

But enough complaining. Summer is obviously not feeling well (teeth or gas? We'll never know). Every time she wakes up her cry is so sad. Breaks my heart a bit. So I'll just try to enjoy the cuddles I'm getting tonight because I know all too soon I will be missing them. 
On to some successes in the mothering world. Logan has woken up between 10 and 11 the past two night to go pee! We're taking big steps here. We'll see how it goes but we might be able to graduate from diapers to undies at night. I love lying in bed and hearing the toilet flush randomly. Is that a weird thing to love? Because I do. So proud of my boy.
