Ryan has been sleeping through the night for about a week. It is wonderful. Unfortunately, it is usually in his swing. However, last night he slept from 8:30 pm to 3:30 am in his crib! Hallelujah! I am victorious! Then I fed and changed him, and he slept in his swing next to me from 4:30 - 8:30 am. I told him that I needed some more sleep, put him in the swing, turned the lights out, and put my back to him, and he went to sleep like that. I was very appreciative. I think he was tired out from going out for Thai food with Diane. He was very smiley when he woke up, and he watched his aquarium for an hour while I folded and put away laundry.
I have been enjoying my last few weeks with him before I go back to work. We are now totally ga-ga over each other, which is wonderful considering my postpartum problems. I am dreading going to work on the 23rd. It will be the first time I have cried at work ever in almost 8 years. I survived the mean Snap-on man and my buddy Eugene in Keokuk without crying, but I don't think I will make it through Ryan's first day of daycare.
We are going shopping tomorrow with Heather. It will be the first time I have used the stroller. Then we are going to the farm for the weekend while Daddy works. I cannot believe the amount of stuff you have to haul home for a baby for 3 nights. Ugh.

Marnie~I am so excited for you that Ryan is sleeping through the night, and you are getting out more. Good for you!!! Whether packing for a day or a week, it ends up being way too much. Just wait until you have to pack toys too!
