Oh sleep!

Up the stair, down the stair.
Oh, how a child can wear.
Out of bed and up again.
Please child we can't win.

Your parents NEED sleep.
Please don't make a peep.
Tomorrow is a big new day.
But without sleep we can't shout hooray!

Momma finally lays her weary head.
And look at you your out of bed!
Go to sleep my little peep.
For we all need some restful sleep.

Sleep

Sleep my friend,
sleep little one.
Close your eyes.
The day is done.

What's that I hear
on the monitor?
A cough? A sneeze?
Baby's awake, all atwitter?

His end is wet.
The sheet's a mess.
Because the diaper's
no good I confess.

I need something more
to keep his butt dry.
Perhaps I will win some
at least I'll try.

If I am lucky
I'll sleep so sound.
Knowing my baby
is dreamland bound.

I speak for the washer!

I am the mom, I speak for the washer,
Stop wetting your bed if you please!
We wake in the night, "my bed is wet!",
Another load the washer must clean.

I speak for the washer, It is so dreary, for these daily washings make it oh so weary!

It's Mommy's time

Tick tock,
It's 8 o'clock.
Time for you to go to sleep.

You've had all day
To play
And now it's time for you go to to sleep.

Maybe I'll cook,
Maybe I'll clean,
but we'll never know until you go to sleep.

Good night sweet boy
I'll fill your crib with toys
and you can play yourself to sleep.

The Night

The chirping of crickets would be such a treat
If only the little's would drift off to their sleep.

But I contest they just refuse to conform
Laughing & singing and wrecking their dorm.

I wish to see moonlight with stars all aglow
Bats flapping their wings and a dewdrop on my nose.

Then off to my bed to sink far into my slumber
Fluffy pillows, soft blankets & counting down the sheep's number.

Everyone's quiet and there's no noise to be found
I'm relaxing, settling in & wearing my mind way down.

Thanks to those training pants no one is up to go pee
Now all this rest & relaxation is really something to me.

Follow Me

Mommy follow me
These are the words I see
I see them in my sleep
I really wish I wouldn't hear a peep
Not a peep in my sleep

I see them in my sleep
The letters spelled out with sheep
Those sheep should help me rest
At last, I detest those spelling sheep

Mommy follow me
I hear him say with glee
Follow me to my room
” Not Daddy!” He shouts with gloom

Back to sleep
I see those sheep
Those spelling sheep
Oh sheep, please help me sleep

Help me sleep by counting to three
1....2...3....
Zzzzzzz...Zzzzzzz
Mommy, follow me!

Maxed!

No pee, no goop,
No leaks, no poop!
One night, 2 nights,
Ten nights, whoop!
Miss Mazz was laxed,
Mommy Me was taxed,
But for nights now on,
Sleep will be maxed!

Agua

"Agua, agua," the baby boy cries every night. Water brings mommy, but the little one won't drink. "Mana, mana" he cries next. Mama brings a banana and this time he eats. His hunger satisfied, now all can sleep.

A Good Night Indeed

PJs, a story, a kiss, and a hug,
but first a fresh diaper that fit nice and snug.
Some were too itchy, some were too rough,
but 7th generation had the right stuff.
No latex, no chlorine, and less earthly onus.
Plus, now no big blowouts? My! What a bonus!
With 7th generation fitting just right,
we could confidently say, "Good night and sleep tight".

Late to Bed, Early to Rise?

Oh baby, dear baby
Whatever are you doing?
You used to sleep so nicely
Now mommy's sleep you are ruining!

You'd sleep and wake and be nice and dry
Your diaper would last from 7 to 7
Not so much anymore, not at all
Now, sleeping until 5:30am is like heaven

We need a new diaper! We need one fast!
Perhaps Seventh Generation is the way to go
Mommy can't function getting up so early
Please help us Seventh Generation! Please help us so!

Please Sleep Baby

It's 2am, not time to play.
We can do that during the day.
Mommy says its time to sleep,
and she's about ready to weep.

We cuddle and rock.
We snuggle and talk.
Mommies says to close your eyes.
You think mommy's telling lies.

So here it is, the middle of the night.
We've done this much that I don't need a light.
I can't move because you'll giggle.
I can't speak because you'll wiggle.

Goodnight sweetheart its time to rest.
Mommy thinks you are the best.
I love you sweat heart, good night my baby.
Tomorrow I'll sleep... Please, maybe?

All night long I would sleep

All night long I would sleep,
When I would hear not a peep.
Waking in the morning
would not be alarming
Fully rested would I be,
And see a sweet baby boy smiling up at me.

"You slept clear through the night!"
I would exclaim.
"Those Seventh Generation overnight diapers were a delight!"
No more reason to complain.

Well rested mommy, well rested baby,
We will never use another brand of overnight diapers again, not even maybe!!

A whole nights sleep

A whole nights sleep without a peep?
Mama would jump, she'd dance, she'd leap!
A full nights sleep has not been mine,
since the year two thousand and nine!
A full nights rest
would be the very best!

A Peaceful Night With Seventh Generation

A peaceful night's sleep,
Oh what a dream!
But it can become a reality -
And this we do mean!

Seventh Generation
Can keep a dry booty for your baby.
We're certain - we've tried it.
And we don't mean maybe.

Try them out if you're looking for sleep
And some rest
Because Seventh Generation diapers
Are truly the best.

A Very Sleepy bear

There once was a very sleepy bear
Who slept in his crib without a care
Until that one night
He woke with a fright
To his diaper he grabbed with all his might
Because it was not too dry
but instead made him sigh
And he thought "seventh generation" is what I most like!

Sleepy little

sleepy time for my littles
Means hugs and tickles
Then we say our prayers
And hope for no nightmares
Then its time to snuggle up
Till the sun come up

Oh what a wonderful night it would be

Oh what a wonderful night it would be, not to wake for feedings and pee. Eight hours of sleep, and nary a peep! What a wonderful night it would be!

Overnight Dreams

No leaks at night?
What a delight!
No wet sheets?
Now that would be neat!
Jammies intact?
Now that’s a fact!
Dry little boy?
Oh what a joy!

Sleep

Sleep without a Peep?
Without a Peep?
A Peep?
Mommy would weep,
She would cry in disbelief!

Oh my bed

Oh my bed, my lovely bed
How I miss this place for my head
If I ran and fled
To a place to lie as if I were dead
I would love to spend a whole night in my bed!

Size 4 please! :-)

Poem for diapers! :) Size 4 please!

I want to dream
Instead you scream
Because your diaper's wet.
A full nights rest
Would be the best.
New diaper we will buy
Because we have to try!
Happy baby, all is right
just because you slept all night!

The odorous mess of Oliver Q. West

Oliver Q. West, maker of the mess
Never needed rest
He'd climb and wiggle
Bounce and giggle
Jump and jiggle
And his parents he did test

One day, a fortuitous day, it seems
His mother dreamed a dream
That young Oliver would sleep
A sleep so deep
That she could creep
And make a peep
And Oliver ne'er would scream

Her dream came true one day
As Oliver hit the hay
She smiled a smile
Just for a while
But soon exclaimed, "Oh nay!"

"what about the leaks?
When his sleep begins to peak-
He'll wet the bed!"
She smacked her head
And thunk a thought of sheiks.
Sheiks, you ask?
Yes, sheiks of power and influence

With resources and might to make her night
A success with seventh generation's best
Such a creation must exist!
