Ah...sleep, my long lost friend.

YAY! progress already! :D we had a MUCH better night last night. everyone got some sleep and even when we weren't sleeping, it was a much more loving and understanding environment for all. ;)
aunt lesa was over last night (like she's expected to be every wednesday night hehe) and played with Coops while Ryan cooked and I ran to the store to get his other prescription. She even fed him dinner and gave him a bath! It's always entertaining to watch someone else take care of him - not to mention a nice break! don't think aunt lesa got his hair quite dry enough after his bath though because when we woke up this morning, it was CRAAAAZY!! haha
So yes, Coops slept much better last night. he was only up once around 1:00ish - he would sleep in Ryan's arms as he made laps around the house and up and down the stairs but as soon as he would stop moving, the crying would start. So I ended up nursing him and he went back to sleep. We also used the boppy to kind of keep him elevated and create an illusion of cuddling. Not sure if it was that or the antibiotics or he was just so tired - or all of the above, but something worked. He was also awake around 5:30 crying but we left him and eventually he went back to sleep. YAY!!
The other good thing is that I actually had some milk this morning to send to Linda's, the sitter, because I wasn't up all night feeding him!
So, you see, sleeping is a win-win for everyone! ;)
