So, I think those post labor and delivery hormones got the best of me during my last post when I spoke highly of Samson's sleeping capabilities and suggested that he was taking things rather easy on me in the resting department. More than two weeks have past and I've gotten to know my little baby boy better. This is what Sam looks like during the day:
Cute isn't he? I love his little pouty lip sticking out....it just melts my heart! I could sit and look at him sweetly all day. Except this is what Sam looks like during the night:
I'm not kidding. He screams his little heart out. I don't know if he's finally figured out that he doesn't get to live in a squishy warm incubator anymore or what, but he cries like this all night....unless I'm bounce walking with him in circles around our house; which is a LOT like his sister used to be at this age. The blue bags under my eyes have turned into a nice deep shade of purple. Just in time for football season! Go Vikings! I'll just keep my purple eyes and paint cute gold stars around them for Vikes games. I'm so tired it's hard for me to formulate sentences sometimes...in fact, I'm seeing two computer screens right now. I think it's time for me to try and get a nap!
i wish i had some good advice for you, jakki! i'll keep you in my prayers. ashlynn would only sleep in her car seat as a newborn and then only on her tummy at ten weeks (because i was SO exhausted by then that i finally put her to sleep that way and prayed for God to keep her safe)!
