Sleep.


It seems that as a new mommy, one question most people ask when they first meet Wilson is "How does he sleep?" We really can't complain about the little guy's sleeping habits. From the start he has been a pretty good sleeper. When we first brought him home, he would sleep for 2 hour stretches from 9PM until 6AM. 2 hours soon turned into 3 and then 4. On the night of Aunt Katie and Uncle Brent's wedding, he gave us his first 6 hour sleep. This was an excellent first Mother's Day gift for Mommy! Once we started school (daycare) he began falling asleep by 7/7:30PM and waking only once during the night. And last night Wilson fell asleep at 7pm. He stirred at about 11:15 and I went in to give him his pacifier. He instantly was back to sleep and he didn't make a peep until 5:50AM! Of course, I woke up about 3 different times to check on him. I am certain this is just a one time thing. It can't possibly last, especially when there is a tiny white threat of a tooth beginning to make its way through the bottom gums....

Anna is an excellent sleeper as well and the first night she went for longer than 6 hours I was totally in there 4-5 times as well, just checking on her. It makes you feel like they are growing up so fast!
