Happy Friday

I finally got a little sleep last night! Yesterday I took Ammon to his six-month appointment and he is 15 lbs and 26 inches long. He is small but he takes after the rest of us! I didn't even bring up sleep questions with my doctor because I knew what he would say and I know what I need to do I'm just not doing it. Anyway, Ammon got his immunizations and he didn't cry with the first one and the second one he cried for a second and then stopped. I was so surprised he did so well! Anyway, that evening I fed him at 10:30 p.m then put him to bed and I went to bed. He woke up crying at midnight and I checked on him to make sure he was okay--I didn't let him see me. I could see he was fine so I went back to bed and let him cry. He only cried a little bit and then went back to sleep!!! Hallelujah!!! Then I woke up at 3 a.m. because my body has been doing that so often this week it thinks that is what time you get up!! I checked on the baby and he was asleep! Imagine that! So I went back to bed. He woke up at 4:30 a.m. screaming so I fed him finally and then he went back to sleep and didn't eat again till 7 a.m. That is a schedule I can handle! But he should have been doing this months ago!! OH, Well. I will take this one night at a time. It is amazing how good you feel though when you get a decent amount of sleep!
Aidan got to walk to school today with Kalli which he thought was the coolest. The reason being is he qualified to go to the school movie this morning!! They have a new thing at Westmore every month where if you have good behavior, 100% attendance and turn in your homework every week and pass the Math assessment, you get to go to the movie of the month. They took two school buses of kids to the SCERA movie theater and today they got to see "The Apple Dumpling Gang" Kalli was in tears yesterday because Aidan was on the list and she wasn't. She was on the list all the way till yesterday and she got marked down because of behavior in her class. Maybe she will learn a lesson. I don't know. She has been getting in a lot of trouble this month! Anyway, I told her to try hard and she can go next month. And she felt better (I think) when I told her she couldn't go this month even if she qualified because she is still grounded from T.V. and movies!!! Anyway, Aidan got to go the movie this morning and he loved it. He loves school so much that after I fed him lunch, he wanted to go to class (the afternoon kindergarteners were told they didn't have to come back to class if they didn't want to.) So I took him back to school.
Kael is leaving this afternoon for a winter scout campout. He is looking forward to it--you couldn't pay me to go camping in the snow!!!

Kari- do you know what worked for Bry when he was crying in the night... waking up.?... I just fed him more solids during the day and on day 2 of doing that he now sleeps usually from 11pm until 7am or even later. Try uping his solids. Bry is up to 2 jars of fruit, 1-2 jars of veggies and 4-5 Tablespoons of rice cereal.
But he is 23 lbs...
Good luck!
