TGIF

I just read a post from Jan 28th. Do you see how I said I really didn't feel well? It was true, it was the last day of being pregnant!

Alejandro has been an absolute delight to have with us. Granted he still hasn't grasped nursing without the shield. But is nursing amazing with it! What a relief, I was hoping he'd take to it well, seeing as I am home and it is free for him to nurse instead of using formula.

Today is Mario's first day back to work, he goes in at 3. I must admit I'm not looking forward to it (neither is he). But I think he's getting a little bit of cabin fever. Plus, when he is at work and the regulars see him again after he's been gone for a week they will ask why. Which just gives him another excuse to be the proud picture showing daddy he already is. He takes pictures of Alejandro with his cell phone each day.

Last night we decided to were going to feed Alejandro a little bit, then we give him a bath, and then let him nurse until he was full. He sleeps so much better when he has had a bath. We started that at 9, by 10:30 we were all sound asleep. He stayed asleep until 2:15, then was awake for three hours. We finally got him to sleep around 5. And woke up at 9:30.

We have a good night, then a not so good night. But now that we know a bath works so well we might keep this up.
