My Precious little 5 month old baby has the brightest blue eyes and adorable dimples in his cheeks. When he smiles at me it is impossible not to smile back. He laughs at farts, not just his. He says Mama when he wants me and baba when he wants hit bottle. He can roll himself all around (if given the opportunity). But when it comes to sleep my baby is like the energizer bunny, he just keeps going! When he is going through a growth spurt I swear he doesn't sleep at all.
At the beginning of December he was averaging stretches of up to 4 hours on rare occasions, but on two back to back glorious nights he slept through 7 hours and 45 minutes! This has not happened since. I'm fine with 3 hour stretches. I don't prefer them but I can function on them.
Last night my darling love bug thought we were 18 years old fresh out of mom and dads house ready to hit the clubs! Every hour!
I'm thankful he chose a friday night so Daddy could come to mommys rescue in the morning, because i'm not 18 anymore and honestly I would be happy to go to bed at 9pm and wake up at 7am. :) I have dinner on the table by 5pm and kids in bed no later than 8:30. I'm in my 30's. I like to have fun and do zany and wacky things but i prefer to do them earlier in the day/evening. So to Randy, Thankyou for taking our little party animal for the morning shift! :)
God has me learning all kinds of wonderful lessons these days and i'm actually excited to find out what it is He is teaching me through this time of deprivation. So if you see me driving around town... i'd stay back at least 50 feet, if you pass me do it quickly and if you make eye contact please smile and wave. :) If I did not wave back don't take it personally, driving tired is likened to driving drunk and reaction time is dramatically slower, so I probably didn't see you.
God Bless you today as you go on your daily journey. Take a nap and think of me. :)
I love my life and I love my family!
