Sleep is Good

Passed out from fun at the Como Park Zoo

Thank you for the kind comments on my last post. I was bracing myself for the 'suck it up and stick it out' kind of response but was pleasantly suprised with your support. I feel pressure to have Adelyn in bed at an earlier time, so not to be a delinquent mother, but honestly and selfishly I like her later bed time. Not only does Jon get to spend more time with her after work, but her night time feeding isn't until after 5 am. By then it almost feels like morning (I guess it technically is). I still aspire to have her in bed by 9 at some point but won't feel so guilty about the 10:30 time for now--at which point she falls asleep on her own.

Brandi and Jeff met us at the battle of Lakeville south vs north football game last night (south won--yay! I guess Adelyn is good luck for them too) They came over afterwards and I was so proud of Adelyn for falling asleep on her own (at 10:30) with no 'bed time routine'. I have decided to be thankful that she sleeps as well as she does and will gradually move up her bed time. She slept with us for the first 6 weeks of her life and still does on occasion after her am feeding and to be honest I would not do it any other way. There is little more special then having your child sleeping peacefully near you. Thanks again for the encouragement!

I am so happy it is sunny this Saturday afternoon. I am hoping we can go to the Lakeville arts festival (similar to mines and pines I believe) & maybe tour a few parade of homes. That's only fair since we spent last weekend watching football-right? :)

PS-Brandi and Jeff are expecting a little babe of their own in March--YAY!
