Yippee!

Just had to share a small victory....

Last night Archer slept for NINE hours in his bed--that's right, I said NINE hours--9 in a row. Wow!

And, he woke up smiling and hungry (as opposed to crying and hungry).

Is mommy feeling refreshed? A bit, but mommy did NOT sleep NINE hours in a row, because she had to get up every couple of hours to make sure Archer was ok:-)

Mommy is hoping:
1) That this was not a fluke, and that it can continue
2) That she can learn to trust that Archer is ok, and not get up to check his breathing when he sleeps for a long time (moms, dads, is this possible?)

Thanks for reading!

Congrats!! I do hope it continues for you!! Hudson has never been a good sleeper - still isn't - but we're hoping! And it does get easier to keep sleeping... eventually - I am just getting to the point where I can sleep really soundly for the stretches of time that he sleeps.

Way to go, Archer! If he makes this a routine then you too will start sleeping. However, every time he changes his routine and sleeps longer you will probably get up. I know that if Skyler sleeps late I still go in and check on her. Hope he keeps it up!

He's finally catching up!! Landry has been doing that for months!!! Although the first month I slept with one eye open, too!!!
