Sleep Depravation?!?!?!

Ok, so I am a new mom. Albeit, a puppy mommy, but a mommy nonetheless. I am sleep deprived. I am really taking this puppy thing too seriously. I put the babies (as my friend Heather has referred to them) to bed and tell them, "Good girls!" just so they will know I really love them. They are in a kennel in the kitchen and it's open. They have not quite got the potty thing down yet. I think the problem is that they go on the wee-wee pads when I am here, but if not, forget it. Erik and I run around like crazy with the stain remover. And every time I turn around I am looking for a chew toy to stop the need to taste our furniture! I think i have it all wrong. Gotta get it together. My brother says don't spoil them. For instance, last night, they cried at 3 AM--no joking, cried! I could not go back to sleep. So, being the crazy dog lovin' mother I am, I went in there, got them a snack and sat up until 4 AM until they went to sleep. I overslept! Can't tell you the last time that happened! I was not late for work by my boss's standards, but by mine. Didn't like that one bit. I wish I could snap my fingers, have these girls trained and be on with it! Nope...that's the life of a puppy lovin' momma! Well, gotta go. Somebody is chewing on my shoes, it's 11:16, and it's time for bed! Night night!
