What Do You Say?

So, what do you say when people ask you how your baby is sleeping at night? Here's my rundown of last night...
10pm-Got home late and put Caden to bed
11pm-Caleb still awake, he looks ready for a party instead of bed
12am- Caleb finally falls asleep and I put him into his bassinet
12:15am-Just as I'm drifting to sleep he wakes up, but after 5 minutes of rocking him he's back down
1am-We hear scary noises from Caden's room, it turns out that we left an electronic toy in his crib and he rolled on it in his sleep, I go get the toy and go back to sleep
2am- Collin wakes up with heartburn and can't sleep
2:30-Caleb wakes up to nurse
3am-Caleb is being restless and just as he's falling back asleep Collin comes back to bed and Caleb wakes back up, he finally goes to sleep after a few more minutes
5:30am-Caleb starts getting restless and won't settle down after nursing
6:30am-I go to the couch hoping Caleb will sleep better, but he won't fall asleep
7am-Caleb finally falls back asleep after a diaper change and some more nursing and I start to doze off
7:15- Not kidding, Caden wakes up
7:30- Caden isn't falling back to sleep so I go and get him out of bed....Good morning Mommy, I hope you are ready for the day!

I am there too.

I think that is the perfect response. The next time someone asks, I am going to go with the detailed rundown of my night.
