I need to do at least one of these posts a year. Ladies, this will make you drool. I was cranky this morning - I was woken up three or four times during the night, and desperately wanted just to sleep, and then during the night I heard Brad make a comment about how at least I got to sleep in this morning because he had to get up to go to work. I said that alarm clocks and babies BOTH wake you up just as thoroughly (NOTE: In conversation afterwards, Brad told me he DIDN'T say that - it was just what I heard late at night). Just to prove my point Aria was up at 6:30 this morning (she generally wakes up 7:30 or 8) so I tried for a good 45 mins to an hour to get her back to sleep, but she would have none of it. I was in tears, and told Brad he was NOT allowed to say that I get to sleep in until the day Aria doesn't need to be fed by me AND the day she sleeps through the night.
Brad could see that I was having a TOUGH morning (duh) and so he did the most amazing thing. He called in to work and told them he'd be late because he had to take care of Aria. He then fed her and took care of her until she fell back asleep around 8:45 or so. She slept until 10:00, which means I GOT TO SLEEP IN UNTIL 10!! That's DOUBLE DIGITS people! It's been a LONG time since I've gotten to do that!
And THAT is why my husband is absolutely amazing.
On a side note: Aria and our couches have a new relationship as of Wednesday. OH BOY!
(she's also getting her 5th tooth)
