Ahhh, Sweet Sleep!

Logan slept for an 8-hr stretch last night. Hurray! That's the best he's ever done, and I felt so refreshed this morning. I was starting to feel like I'd never get some decent shut-eye, since for the previous week he'd been getting up not once, not twice, but THREE times a night, positively screaming each time. I'm sorry, but at 5 months old that's just not acceptable (I know it could be teething or something, but still . . . my grumpiness threshold with my older kids was getting a bit on the low side). Oh, how I hope last night wasn't just a fluke.

Over the past week I've also switched from swaddling him and putting him in the swing during his naps to just laying him in his crib. He rolls all over the place and fusses a little bit, but goes to sleep fairly quickly. I'm liking this, too!

Nothing sweeter than a sleeping baby! (Logan in June)

Oh, I can feel for you... last night Brayden climbed into my bed at 2:00 a.m., about the same time the dog decided to venture upstairs and into my room (scarring the you know what out of me because he's not allowed upstairs)... the night only went down hill from there... Brayden tossed and turned all night long, the dog whined all night long, and everytime I tried to sneak away to find another bed to sleep in, Brayden started crying... needless to say, I think I need a nap today too!

And yes, I can not thank you enough for recommending Twilight... just finished re-reading Eclipse today... I can't WAIT for this weekend, but at the same time, I'm sad knowing that this is it... you know... it will all be over.... I just hope I'm happy with how she ends it all!
