So tired...

I have been tired for the past 3 years. It first started with pregnancy woes. Then, post-pregnancy came newborn, newborn became baby, and baby became toddler. Today, between my 2 1/2 year old that wakes up at the crack of dawn and doesn't like to take naps over an hour (that is IF she takes a nap) and my husband that snores, chomps his mouth in his sleep, and hogs the bed, I rarely wake up refreshed.

But, what drives me nuts is that on the rare occasion that my husband gets up with IB in the morning...
1. I get to 'doze' with a toddler jumping on my back or picking at any skin bump she can find. (Meanwhile I'm begging T to get up with her).
2. I get to hear my toddler screaming at the door, opening the door, and getting into things, in our room, because T isn't really watching her.
3. I get to be woken up every 1/2 hour by T to see when I'm going to get up.
4. I get to clean up the mess that IB made of the house because T fell asleep or wasn't really watching her.

Now, on the VERY RARE occasion my parents take IB overnight...
1. I get woken up by T, who has woken up early and wants to jump out of bed to do things.
2. I get woken up every 1/2 hour by T to see when I'm going to get up.
3. I get to have my sheets taken off and sat on, by T, so that I get up.
4. I get to listen to how I'm "so boring," "always sleep," and "have slept so long already" (all of course by T).

I am not sure who is more difficult, my little kid or my big kid...
