Sleeping

I can't believe how lucky that David and I are. We have created and fell in love with this beautiful baby girl that the Lord gave us. She has been sleeping from 8:30 or 9:30 at night until about 5:00 am without waking. When she wakes up, she's smiling, cooing, and laughing on her changing table. It absolutely makes the night worth getting up for just to see that smile.

Tonight, she fell asleep around 7 and so we tried to wake her up to feed her and change her, but she was just so tired. She did stay awake for a few minutes but we ended up finally giving up and putting her back in bed for the night. She'll probably be up before her normal time frame but that's still okay.

I have heard of mother's having so many problems getting their baby to sleep for more than a couple hours during the night and it makes me feel so proud of being able to get some sleep during the night. I know that I can be a great mother because I am not sleep deprived (most days) and that she's healthy as a mule. :) Any lack of sleep that I suffer now is of my own doing. Just can't skip those addictive Grey's Anatomy episodes.
