11:30 PM – 6:50 AM, 12:30 AM – 7:30 AM

Yup that’s right, Evan slept from 11:30 Thursday night until 6:50 Friday morning and then again from 12:30 Friday night until 7:30 Saturday morning. At only five weeks old!! While I do enjoy getting more than three or four hours of sleep at a time, I have to say that I sort of missed those 3 AM smiles that I have been getting. My friend, Patience, asked me last week what was harder that we expected and what was easier than we expected about having a baby. I told her that I knew it would be tough to be sleep deprived…I need my sleep!! But that getting up at 3 AM isn’t as hard as I thought it would be. I hear Evan stirring and fussing and find it rather easy to get up. Must be that sweet little face that makes it all worth it! I’m sure that there will be plenty more 3 AM smiles before Evan really starts sleeping through the night but it was a nice treat!

Hi!

Peaceful little angel asleep in his swing

Tuckered out from a tough day

How can I sleep with the flash going off so often?
