Sleeps Like A Baby...

Whoever coined the term..."sleeping like a baby," has obviously not had a baby.

Considering the uncanny ability that Cory and I have to sleep, you would think that Brig would have gotten some of that wonderful talent...however, thus far, he has not really let his light shine in that area. I do realize that most new parents go through the shock of losing so much sleep...but please, let me vent. (for just a moment). Brig's self- designated bedtime is midnight. Then if we are lucky he will sleep for three hours. Yea!!!! However, after that first three hour block he starts to realize that his mom just might be content with three hour blocks...so he gets real sneaky on us...he sleeps for a two hour block...and then...a one hour block!!!!! ***Announcement: Brig did sleep for a four and a half hour block last night. YAHOO (There might be hope that he gets those fabulous genes after all!!!)***

Needless to say, we get a bit sleepy during the day.

Another habit of Brig's...

Being the only grandchild on one side and only the third on the other...Brig gets held...a lot. Especially during the first month of his life. (He is now 6 weeks old...still no smiles though...we will get to that some other time.) So, now at the whopping age of 6 weeks and four days...he still thinks that he needs to be held while he naps. Not being held=short naps=cranky baby. And we like our happy little guy. So, right now, at a quarter to five I am sitting on the love seat, holding Brig on my chest. Thus, the reason for this post...and for my lack of shower today, and my dirty dishes, and my growing addiction to photoshop, and my increasing complete adoration of the cutest little baby ever. Even if he doesn't smile at the sound of my voice. I'm not bitter though.
