Am I Babywise...or do I have a wise baby?

Both. Drake is wise. He knows how to tug at my heartstrings to get what he wants. However, this week, we are trying Babywise again. I tried it when he was first born...not so much. I was stressing myself out over it. I did take the eat/wake/sleep idea and ran with it. That has worked out well. Now, I'm trying the sleep part. So far, it sucks. The first nap went swimmingly. He slept from 10:45-12:15. His second nap is not going as well. Apparently the 45 minute intruder snuck in and woke him up. So I fed him. And changed him. And he's still crying. Not just wimpering, but screaming crying. I hate it! I know there is nothing wrong with him physically, but I just ache to go pick him up. Oh Lord, how long is this going to last?

2 hours!

Drake slept for 2 whole hours!!! Wah-hoo!!!

To have and to hold

That is what Drake wants. To have his mommy hold him...24/7. Just within the last few days too. He was doing just fine. He would eat around 9, we would play until around 11, then I would put him down for a nap in his swing...the only place he would even think about napping. I gave up on the naps in the crib a long time ago. Well, since Sunday or so, he has REFUSED to nap. His schedule is all messed up now. He will sleep for about 30 minutes in the swing, then he is done. He wakes up fussing and as soon as I pick him up, he stops. I can't hold him all day long, and that is what he wants. What to do, what to do. He is in his swing, at this moment, fussing because he is soooo tired, yet wants to be awake and held. Oh, wait. He is asleep...oh, for how long though? Another 30 minutes? Please oh please let it be for 1 1/2 to 2 hours! Stay tuned...

Tinkering Tuesday

I slept in this morning. It was nice. I haven't been sleeping very well at night. Every time I have to flip to the other side, I wake up. Then I realize I have to pee. So I have to actually get out of bed. By the time I get back in, my mind is racing - I need to read more baby books, I need to find a pediatrician, I need to pack my hospital bag, I need to actually register at the hospital, etc...ugh.
When I finally did get out of bed this morning, it was time to work. And clean. I haven't cleaned in forever. I keep putting it off, hoping my hubby will volunteer to do it for me. So far, no luck. So, I get to clean both bathrooms today. yay.
The good news about today is we are going to K and D's house to eat fondue! I don't know if we're actually going to cook meat like at the Melting Pot or if it is just a chocolate or cheese fondue. Or both. Either way, I don't care. I LOVE FONDUE!!! yum.
