So apparently, yesterday, J was afraid he would miss something important when it happened, and he refused to really sleep all day. He’d doze. He’d catnap. He’d get about 45 minutes of sleep at a time (instead of 1-2 hours). He wasn’t unusually cranky…just not sleeping. Until Karen got home that is…after he was fed, he slept for 3 hours, was up for a bit, slept for another 3 hours or so, and then slept from 11-7 this morning. Hopefully, we’ll do better today because I know Karen and Erik like to actually spend time with him in the evenings. <\/P>
I did make it to WalMart yesterday with J in tow. We had no crying fits, and the car ride did put him to sleep for a while. And it was nice to figure out the car seat, the diaper bag, the process for being out of the house, etc. Not that I didn’t think I could handle it, but it hasn’t been a normal activity for me until now. So anyway, I guess that means we can leave the house as often as we want to now!<\/P>
The baby is making a lot of noise in the monitor right now. I’m hoping he sleeps a bit longer, but of course, now he’s probably ready to be up for the entire day again (after all that sleeping last evening and night!). <\/P>
Okay, I guess that’s all the interesting details I have for today. Last evening was uneventful: I cleaned the kitchen and did a load of laundry (sweatshirts!). I have no major plans for today either. And with the gray\/rainy weather back for a couple of days, I guess I’ll just stay inside and hang out with the dog and the baby. <\/P>
Later! Happy Wednesday!<\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
