More on sleep...for the last time ! ! ! !



I know that I talk about sleep a lot (or our lack of sleep) but I am finished. I have been sounding a little bit whiney like we are not enjoying parenthood because we have been so tired. This is not the case at all, we have been enjoying this little one immensely, despite our lack of sleep. I can say that with a very upbeat tone in my voice because we have had 4 nights of great sleep and things just look a little bit rosier this week. I know that being tired comes with the job of being new parents, but after a couple of months, the adrenaline starts to wear off and we have been looking and feeling totally haggard so it is perfect timing for baby Fiona to start to enjoy her sleep rather than fighting it.

These photos were taken last Wednesday when my mom was here for the day. Leslie has claimed Wednesdays as her day with Fiona. She has been coming in, doing some cleaning and tidying and looking after the little Fiona during the day. Then, in the evening when Ross gets home from work we can go out for a few hours to dinner or a movie or whatever. Yes, we are very lucky ! We get a date night, free babysitting and the house gets tidy. Thanks Mom, we all love you and appreciate you very much.
