Day 4: No sleep again

My night was like this: Pattie was asleep just after 9 and I was in bed at 10, up with Pattie at 11; back in bed at 11:20, up with Pattie at 1:15; back in bed at 1:45, up with Pattie at 2:05; back in bed at 2:20, up with Pattie at 4:45; back in bed at 5, up to the get boys ready for school at 6:10 (so is Pattie). I have no idea what her deal is or why she hates me and hates sleep, but she certainly handles it better than I do. I may do grievous bodily harm to someone if I don't make coffee soon...
And no, this is not the first time, nor is it even that unusual. My child will not sleep! Three weeks ago when she was on antibiotics for a sinus infection she slept all night long the first night of meds. It was like....heaven. For the record, she was my best sleeper as an infant. Neither of her brothers slept through the night as infants. Raley started to around age 18 months and Clay was still waking up while I was pregnant with Pattie (he was almost 4 when she was born, like 2 weeks shy of 4). Her brothers are awesome sleepers now. Clay was still having trouble until he had his tonsils and adenoids removed, now he sleeps like the dead along with his brother. Pattie slept through the night from about 2 months until 7 months. Then she got her first cold, poor baby. Right at the end of the cold she started cutting teeth, and one thing after another until she was just used to waking up.
I have never been able to let my kids cry it out. I have no issue with parents who do, I just can't do it myself. And I don't think it would work at this point since she is in a toddler bed, not a crib. She usually just gets up and walks into our room and pokes me to wake me up during the night. Usually she wakes up once, right in the middle of the night and after snuggling for a bit she is out and we are both back in our beds and dreamland. But here lately, she just! keeps! waking! up!
I know it is all my fault and I have taught her to do it and I have no right to complain, but this is my blog and I will write whatever I want to!! I really think I should go make that coffee now...
