Sweet Dreams Are Made of This

YEAH! It finally happened! Taylor slept through the whole night!! I must admit she has been doing better lately- usually only waking up once during the night (or early morning) usually around 4:00am, but sometimes waking up twice. Last night, she went to bed around 8:00pm, and I went to bed around 11:00pm. When I woke up- not to the sound of a baby crying, but on my own- I was expecting to look at the clock and see that it was 3:00, 3:30, 4:00, but NO.. it was 6:30am, and she was STILL asleep!! Of course, my first thought was I should go check on her to make sure she is okay, but then I talked myself into staying in bed and just enjoying the moment. She ended up waking up about 30-45 minutes later, but even then, I didn't mind getting up so early (I am NOT a morning person!) because for the first time in a very long time I was able to get several hours of noninterrupted sleep! Sure, it would be nice if she would start sleeping the whole night through EVERY night, but until then, I will cherish the few nights that she does.

HURRAY!!! I am so happy for you. I look forward to when I don't have to get up to pump. Maybe someday soon we will both be celebrating the return of completely restful nights!
