Night Time

Just a quick note about night time...

Things are getting better. Brandon still wakes up during the night and if we don't tend to him he will scream until he spits up or for hours (trust me, we have tried to let him scream). Right when we hear him we rush to him so he doesn't fully wake up and is still groggy. We aren't feeding him during the night anymore. So we just roll him on his side, stick his paci in, and pat his butt for a few seconds and he is back to sleep.

At 6am or so he comes into bed with us for cuddle time. I do nurse him at this time (pretty much the only time he nurses anymore) and he falls back to sleep. Even though I HATE mornings and would rather sleep in this is now my favorite time of the day. Once he is done eating I roll him over and spoon his body into my chest right under my nose so I can smell him and give him lots of kisses! We cat nap for about 20 minutes and then I have to get up and get ready for work. Such a sweet time.

Dad usually sleeps through this time and he gets his cuddle time after I leave since his work starts later than me. He gets to get up with him once or twice a night too though- which helps me out a TON!
