I’m not sure what the official definition
of sleeping through the night is, but last night, for the first
time, Lex slept for 8 hours straight (9:30pm-5:30am). I was
psyched! Of course, it would have been even better if he slept
until 8am :) But I guess sleeping late comes later. So he woke
up at 5:30, nursed, and was back asleep by 6am. Yay. I crawled
back in bed, but it was all just a tease because he was back up
at 6:30. So we played for awhile (well, he played, I ate cereal
and read about Chief Justice Renquist’s death) and now he’s
very tired and talking to himself in his crib. I suspect he’ll
be alseep by the time I finish this post. Such a good baby :) I
was reading the Dr. Sears book yesterday (considered to be
the baby manual) and Lex is right on
target with all development milestones, with one exception. The
book says that in the 4th month he should be able to support
his weight for very short periods of time and now is a good
time to start holding him up to help encourage him to hold his
own weight. Lex has been doing that since about 6 weeks. He
also has been talking a lot lately. He’s very good at the
aahhhhs and oohhhhs. :)

Not
alseep yet.
