Before little Addie came into our lives I told myself that the period of sleepless nights would be such a small percentage of our lifetime and that we would survive….holy geez is that hard to remember when you pace your house trying to get your little one down in the middle of the night. Honestly, it hasn’t been bad at all, I do feel blessed with her sleep schedule. For the past few weeks she has only been getting up 2-3 times at night, she will eat and immediately go back down to sleep which is awesome.
This last night this little one shocked us last night. We were out at an event for Dave’s work, an outdoor event…just as the worst storm ever blew through we headed for cover and of course she slept right through the craziness. After waiting out the storm in the bar with everyone else we decided to hit the road to get home in time for her next feeding (8:30). We transferred her into the dreaded car seat that she HATES. I made the drive home thinking I would find a restless little one but nope, still out like a light. Of course I don’t wake her. She shocked us both to sleep in her car seat until midnight…are you kidding. I think I am in for a long night but thankfully, I change her, feed her and 10 minutes later she is out again…..YEAH for sleep. Little Addie slept until 10 in the morning with only 2 short instances of awake time to be fed….YEAH for sleep. It is nights like last night that make it feel as though we will soon not feel like zombies :)
