7pm to 7am!

My little boy is growing up so fast---everyone told me it would happen, but I just was not prepared for exactly how fast. He is already 3 1/2 months old! Brad and I had gotten used to him being up until 8:30 or 9:00pm then dozing off until I woke him around 10 or 10:30 before we went to bed for his last feeding until morning (he started sleeping 10pm-7am at 11 weeks). Well, on this past Saturday night (11/29/08) my mother-in-law woke him up for his last feeding--as we were out at Wild Wings. Anderson took less than an ounce and went right back to sleep and slept until after 7 the next morning. Sunday night, I fed him at 7 and put him right down and he did not wake up until 7 Monday morning. Seriously. And that was that and it has been that way ever since. No scaling back the feedings, nothing. He just dropped it like a bad habit. We are thrilled, but I would be fibbing if I did not say I miss him. Now don't get me wrong, I do enjoy the 3 to 3 1/2 hours of time in which I have discovered that I do, in fact, have a husband and 2 dogs. But, it is very evident that something is missing---We are proud of you little buddy and your momma misses you something awful!

Already 3 1/2 months old!


I am getting ready to sleep 7 to 7!
