First Meltdown

Mine, that is. Not Bobby's. He's just a laid-back content little guy. He does prefer to do his sleeping in the morning instead of at night though!

Oh, Allison is fine. She took a few hour nap yesterday afternoon and then said she felt better. She was still a little quiet and pale, but she ate a good dinner and slept well last night. She's her normal self this morning. She's doing very well getting used to having a brother. She asked once if we like him better than her, but seems to put up with him just fine.

Anyway, back to my meltdown. It's amazing how quickly I forgot what it's like to have a baby around again. The physical stuff, carrying a squirmy 22 pounder around, walking the floors trying to get him to sleep, the lack of sleep itself, and I just lost it last night. Dissolved into tears for a good 5 minutes. Bob took over and got him to sleep. He also got up with him at 2:30am and got him back to sleep without a bottle. He is my hero! Anyway, today I'm very well rested and good to go again.

Besides the 2:30 wake up, he woke up again at 5:30, but went right back to sleep when I gave him his pillow and a few pats on the back. He woke up again at 7:00 and threw up. I picked him up out of the crib, and he puked again all over me. What fun. But he went right back to sleep until nearly 9:00. He's napping now.

We'll head to the pool again when he wakes up.
