So after sleeping for just an hour or so last night Willie woke up around 10 and was up for a long time. i think i finally remember looking at the lock and it read 1:15. Hopefully tonight will be better. He was a little blocked up and I think it was kicking his butt (no pun intended) last night but today we solved that problem. Two moos and 5 minutes in the exersaucer and we were blocked no more! What a trip that was first thing in the morning. I hadn't even had the chance to finish my first coffee before it was ice cold since that blockage required an insta-bath. Anyways, back to bedtime.
It's been a tough couple of nights. Well 10 actually. We finally moved Willie's bed into J's-or what is now known as the boys room- a week ago Friday. It's been going fairly well and it had actually gotten quite a bit better until the weekend and we were gone until nearly 11 and well, that kinda put things a little out of whack but we'll recover. The boys are loving it. J is just so excited to have his baby in the room with him. Before we moved him in J would get a "free ride" to bed with Daddy and then he and I would have a book, nurse and then call Daddy and Willie. They'd come in and peak around the corner and then it was in the bed for J. That didn't mean he'd be sleeping......usually he'd play for a while and then fall asleep singing or blabbering to himself. Sometimes Willie would go down in our room quickly and then Jimmy and I would sit and listen to J. Now the boys are in there for a while cutting up but once Willies ready I go in and nurse him and rock him to sleep. Now I get to see first hand the craziness in that room at night. Too funny. It's taking a little longer to get Willie to sleep but it's getting better and better. We've got to work on naps but we're getting there too. Usually by the early morning Willie ends up sleeping in the bed with us. A good block of sleep for mama. Yay!
Crazy thing is, I know it's only a little while until they both go down quickly at night and are out until the morning. I'll be all sad and bummed. Missing the excitement at night. Missing those quiet moments. Nothing beats the smell of a baby cuddled into you nursing at 3 in the morning. It's pure bliss.
On that note, the boys are both sleeping. It's officially been 41 minutes and I must use my time wisely. I'm going to run a hot bath, soak for a few minutes and hit the sack just on time for the Braves game. If I'm lucky I should be good for one more hour. maybe 45 minutes, or it could go the other way and I have 5 minutes. ha! ha! still have to crack some eggs and make some coffee.....i'm out of here!
Let's go Huddy! Go Braves!
