Ta-DA!
This is the wonderful boy who slept through the night last night! Here's the run down of how it went down:
8:30 pm Owen gets changed, read to and snuggled. He falls alseep around 9pm.
9:30 pm Owen wakes up hungry, disturbing our tardy viewing of the Sopranos. I bring him down, feed him, and he drifts back off.
10:10 pm I deposit him in his bed withouth waking him and tiptoe into my own.
10:22 pm I slip into bed myself and promptly fall asleep on George's chest while he watches Napolean Dynamite for the upteenth time on HBO.
4:34 am I wake up in an instant, startled, in a pool of my own drool and with a shirt soaked in breastmilk. Oh my God, I think! The monitor is broken!
4:36 am After changing channels and turning up the volume I realize it's not broken and that Owen is actually still asleep. I wake George up to share the happy news.
4:40 am I realize I'm so excited that I can't fall back asleep.
4:44 am I suggest celebratory sex.
4:54 am Celebratory sex is over.
5:14 am Owen's stirring grows louder and he breaks into full cries. I go in and feed him. He smells like poop but I don't change him because he's fallen back asleep again.
5:30 am I go back to bed.
8:20 am As I post this, Owen is still sleeping.
Some people might say it doesn't qualify because he woke up at 5am. That's not all night. Let me explain- George and I get up at 5am during the week. That, unfortunately, is all night to us.
