It’s been a few days so I thought I’d say
a quick hello before baby gets here this morning. Life is going
ok these days. We’re still working on sleep training with Eve.
She doesn’t fully wake up at night, but she does fuss off and
on a lot. The past two nights I’ve been weak and brought her
into the bed to nurse. Sleep training is hard! I’m going to try
feeding her solids before bed instead of nursing being her last
meal before bed. Maybe that will help her sleep longer. The
funny thing is I’ve been nursing her in bed at 5:30 or 6:00am
lately then putting her back to bed and she’ll sleep until 9:00
usually. The other day she slept until 10:00! Lex is always up
at 6:00 and the daycare baby doesn’t get here until 9:00, so I
get some nice quiet time in the mornings with Lex. We have
breakfast, read the paper, color, etc. Stuff that used to be
part of our morning routine pre-Eve. The baby is super sweet
too, and very mellow, so we’ve been having nice days. I have a
3yr old girl who should be starting part time next week. I say
“should” because my experience so far is don’t count on it
until they are actually here. But hopefully. I’ve also been
scheduling playdates here so Lex can have some toddler company
sometimes. We had a kid named Thomas over last week and it was
great. He can really keep up with Lex and they were wrestling
and having a great time. Anyway, that’s all for now.
