Hopefully this won’t be the last time that I have the chance to write a blog post proclaiming the fact that I woke up this morning, at about 6:30am, feeling like my old self. I felt bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, just like the morning person I usually am.

Now, I don’t expect this to continue every night. I know we will probably have a few setbacks, but it was still a great night and it is awesome to feel rested.

Here’s how it went down…

8:40-8:50 – Bath Time
8:50-9:00 – Drying Off and Getting Dressed
9:00-9:30 – Nursing
9:30-12:40 – Sleep!
12:40-12:45 – Diaper Changing
12:45-1:05 – Nursing
1:05-1:15 – Burping and Rocking
1:15-3:15 – Sleep!
3:15-3:20 – Diaper Changing
3:20-3:40 – Nursing
3:40-3:45 – Burping and Rocking
3:45-6:35 – Sleep!
6:35-6:40 – Diaper Changing
6:40-7:10 – Nursing
7:10 – Awake and Starting the Day

So, almost eight hours of sleep. Sure it came in smaller chunks, but last night was the first time that we got two chunks of sleep that were almost three hours long! Thank goodness and I hope this continues!

It is also worth noting that right now, as I am writing this entry, Ewan is napping. In his own bed. This is the first time since we got him home that he is actually doing this. In part he never napped in his own bed because we didn’t really want to put him down. In part it was because he was much happier to do so while in the sling. I think it is a good thing that he is able to sleep in many places and many different ways. It will help to be sure that he is flexible and able to keep up with Aaron and I and our active, ever-changing lifestyle.
