There is nothing quite like a Sleeping Through The Night night…especially after weeks of stumbling out of bed again and again to stop bleeding noses, dose babies in pain, and offer water or change diapers because you don’t know what else to do to try to diagnose what caused the waking.
I woke up at 5:12 and thought, It’s late. Nobody’s cried tonight. Did I sleep through the night?
I’m so dazed, I don’t know what to write about this morning. So in honor of a full night’s sleep following the second of three antibiotic shots (please God, tell me we’re coming out of this at last!), I’ll share my favorite sleep moments from the last several years:
Julianna asleep in the open window frame
Nicholas asleep on the kitchen floor after Mass on Sunday morning
Sir “I don’t need no stinking Nap” Alex
You know it was a good field trip when she conks out on the table at Pizza Hut
Now there’s a blast from the past…Julianna at age 3 weeks. Just before the RSV scare that nearly killed her.
A headless doll, just for fun
One of my favorite sleep pictures EVER: Alex, age 2, discovered in the dark with these books, “Bad Kitty” and “Take Me Out To The Ballgame.”
And Michael, sleeping on top of his blankets. He still does this. The blue crocheted one is his pillow, the green one is his body pillow.
Hope you enjoyed!
love pictures
I did enjoy the pictures. Sleeping babies make my heart melt. That’s not a very pretty visual but you know what I mean.
It’s a perfect visual. 🙂
So glad restful nights are returning to your home. Earlier this week Caitlin slept through her 1-2 am feeding; a lovely reminder that babies do eventually sleep the night.
What bliss, a good night’s sleep, maybe even for mommy.
I had to do a double take on that picture with the headless doll! The pictures are adorable. 🙂
