14 Weeks Old

  We feel fortunate because the little one sleeps like a champ… usually.  And almost like clockwork.  We all go to bed around 9pm.  She’ll get up around 1am for a feeding and then promptly go back to bed.  Then she’ll get up again for another feeding around 5am.  And each time she goes back to sleep with little fuss.  And on top of this awesomeness, she hardly has a dirty diaper through the night.  (Which makes for very interesting morning bowel movements, but that’s another story)

   This was not the case last night.  She was up several times through the night and didn’t go right back to sleep.  And it seems like each time required a new diaper. 

   Now I fully realize that our worst night may be another family’s best night and that we should be grateful.  But this doesn’t make it any easier when we expect her to do A, B and C but instead gives us X, Y and Z.  It feels a little like doing advanced calculus with only a basic understanding of arithmetic.  (Not that I’d know because I don’t think I’ve ever done advanced calculus)

   This is just Von Bebe changing it up on us.  It’ll help keep us on our toes for the days when she REALLY changes it up by sneaking out of the house at night. 

   Can’t.  Wait. 

It’s a good thing she’s so darn cute.
