Short But Sweet

Crissy January 5th, 2006

Well, today is the day, it’s official. I had a great run up until now. Aiden has reduced his napping schedule from three naps down to two. I know, I know, some of you are thinking, “Hey, at least you get two (or even one)!” but I was able to get so much more done during the day!

Aiden has been sleeping through the night since he was one month old (I know, we’re very lucky) unless his teeth bother him (then it’s sporadic, I want mommy in my room, sleeping with blood-curdling screams in between). In the early months he used to eat, stay up maybe an hour and then sleep. I was in heaven, not because I didn’t want to be with him, but because I felt so productive.

He is much more active and fun to play with now, so this new awake time is nothing to complain about, but the house looks like a bomb hit it. I did take some time this mornig to do a yoga/pilates workout, thinking that I had time in the afternoon to clean/straighten the house. I guess I will have to wait until the weekend to catch up, when Daddy time is more available. Until then I can work on helping Aiden practice the art of crawling, currently he looks more like he’s skydiving.
