i lost my cool

I have to get this off my chest.

I'm normally very very patient with K and I pride myself on that. For the past week or so, she has been refusing to go down for bedtime before midnight. Her bedtime has been 10:30 since she was brought home. Anyhow, I start bedtime at 8:30, bath, lotion, jammies, book, hang out, nurse and bedtime. Still, up til midnight.

Tonight, I lost it. After two hours of rocking and studying, I got frustrated. I was yelling while I was rocking her and got to the point where I had to put her down and go outside to cool off. I feel terrible for losing my patience with her bc she's just doing what babies do, but I seriously could not help it, I lost my cool and I'm sorry for it.

So now, I'm bumping in bed and daddy has taken over. She's still crying.
