Way too awake

For the last two days, she's been awake again. The worst was last night. It was like she was over stimulated. She only took two cat naps yesterday - 20 minutes each. Then about 7:45 pm, she fell asleep fast. She took a bottle and I figured she was down for the night.

Nope! She woke up at 8:15 pm while Reagan was in the bath. My dad was here so we split the kid duty. :) She was wide awake and mad that she wasn't with me. We got Reagan out of the bath and into her pjs. We sat down to read books and I found that Maddy was not calming down. Her eyes were darting all over the place and she almost seemed as if she couldn't "shut down". The problem was the I couldn't figure out where to take her in the house to calm her down.

I tried her room, but she just cried. I felt so bad for her. When Jim got home, we just brought her downstairs with us and I put her in her sleeper. I just laid there with her. She cooed and giggled and laughed. It was so cute. We had our own little conversation. I heard more gurgles and other noises that I hadn't heard from her. She even started mimicking me. When I wasn't looking at her, she'd shriek. It was cute.

But at 9:30 pm, like clockwork, she fell asleep. Weird.
