Wide Awake

Jay has been sleeping well at night. he always has really. As a newborn, he would wake every few hours for feeding, etc. Now he typically wakes up one time, or even sleeps the whole night through.





Last night, E offered to let me sleep upstair the whole night while she tended to Jay downstair. We call this "flying solo" in the Kennedy house. When E made her offer we both thought it would be no big deal. He would wake at 2 or 3 AM, get feed and changed, and go back to sleep. Typical night, no problem.





BABIES ARE NOT TYPICAL!! Or so we learned (or should I say Edith learned last night!).





First, Jay woke around 12:30 AM... then again around 3:45 AM. But this time he didn't go back to sleep. He wasn't fussy mind you. He was a happy little guy - cooing and smiling the entire time. Edith, bless her, let me sleep! so when I came downstairs a little after 5 AM She had hardly slept a wink and Jay was over in his bouncy smiling and wiggling!





This JayWalking is definitely a Journey!!! We'll get there.
