Guess what I did last night?

Guess what I did from 10p-4a last night? SLEEP!!!! Hallelujah. This nursing thing is hard on the sleep cycle. (UK friends, most Americans seem to say "nursing" rather than "breastfeeding," at least in these parts. I think that's because saying the word "breast" still makes most of us giggle.) I'm thankful that nursing is going well, but I'm admit I'm a wee jealous of my formula-using friends whose babies have been sleeping for months. Sometimes I feel like feeding the boy is the only thing I'm good at when it comes to this whole "parenting" thing, though, so I'm going to stick with it as long as I can handle.

Sleep is grand. I feel lucid. I feel like talking to the grumpy neighbors. I feel like baking a pie and meeting the new neighbors. I feel like ... checking my email.

This is big, folks. Really big.

    I don't know if it's so much a giggly thing as just a regional thing? Glad you finally got some sleep! If you end up too tired to eat the pie, let us know ;)

    Please please please dear lord let me be able to post the same amazing news soon! The only good thing about my work trip to London last week was that for the first time since last April I got more than 4.5 consecutive hours of sleep. It. Was. Awesome.

      Oh my god, an overnight trip sounds so amazing. Please describe. In DETAIL!!!
      It only lasted one night anyway. Last night was one of the worst we've ever had. Well, since Friday anyway.
