Glorious Nights
I have always heard that 12 was the magic number when it comes to babies sleeping through the night (12 as in 12 lbs). At that weight, they shouldn't need constant nourishment. That is exactly what Lexi weighed at her 2 month doctor's appointment. However, the magic number did nothing for us. She continued to wake up every night around 2:30 to 3 am very hungry. Almost a month later, I began to wonder if she would ever stop crying for food at night. This weekend, I finally got to experience what it is like to have a baby sleep through the night. It didn't just happen once either. I have been spoiled for two nights in a row. Ok, so I am still waking up throughout the night to check on her. It is impossible for me to sleep through the little whining in her sleep moments, but I haven't had to feed her so I go right back to sleep. I think this is the best step in her development yet.

This blog is like a journal for me. It is also a way for my friends to keep tabs on me.
For people who don't know me, I come from a big family (3 brothers & 1 sister). We moved around a LOT, so I am not really from one particular place. I like to call Katy, Texas my home though.
Recent news, my Dad & Mother-in-Law were diagnosed with Terminal Cancer in April/May of 2005. My dad passed away 5-Dec-05 .
