there she goes again…”<\/p>\n
Friday night Rachael decided to sleep for eight hours. I woke up after 7 hours because my body hasn’t slept for seven hours straight in about 8 or 9 months now so it’s forgotten how to get good sleep in one chunk. I wondered if Rachael’s night was a fluke.<\/p>\n
Last night, even with the time change, Rachael slept for 8 hours. Too bad I woke up a few times last night and when the alarm went off it felt like my body had been through a blender. So two extra strength Tylenol<\/span> later and there is much rejoicing in this household.<\/p>\n It’s funny, but in Rachael’s sleeping patterns she seems to dabble in the next highest amount a bit before settling for a little. She briefly<\/span> started at 3 hours at a time at night, bounced into 4 hours and then chose to stick with it, then she jumped to 6 for a couple of sporadic<\/span> nights, then settled on five for a while, then hit 7 twice,and settled on 6 for a while, and now she’s hit 8. So even if she goes with her trend of sticking with 7, that’s completely doable. (And right in time for Mommy returning to work.)<\/p>\n Now if only we could teach my body not to hate me…<\/p>\n I had another realization<\/span> last night as the baby smiled a huge animated smile at me, that baby’s ours. Blew my mind again.<\/p>\n Thanks be to God!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" there she goes again…” Friday night Rachael decided to sleep for eight hours.
