My Big Fat Baby

Just wanted to update a little about Zach. He is doing great! Well except for the fact that he wants to eat all the time and doesn't sleep that well:) Actually he has seemed to turn a bit of a corner and I am sure that I am jinxing myself by writing about it, but the last two nights he has had a stint of sleeping for six hours on his own. Most of it was in his crib (in his nap nanny, which is in his crib), but still, not too bad. Just when I thought my boobs were going to go on strike for unfair work for unfair pay, the little guy might just be coming around.

Another secret to his sleeping well: tequila. So, this may be a little known fact but when some of your great friends take you out for your birthday and force you to do a shot of tequila and you decide that you have eaten enough to dilute any effects the tequila may actually have on the baby so you go ahead and nurse him anyway he sleeps like a champ. Who knew? This conchita might have to start doing shots of tequila every night.

Zach did roll over again the other day, but I think it was more of the fact that he sort of lost his balance and tipped over then he was actually working to roll over. I put him back on his belly to try again and he came darn close, but not quite there. I can't wait until he is rolling over easily so that I can start putting him to bed on his belly...stupid SIDS and the Back to Sleep Campaign. I am tempted to put him that way anyway, cuz God knows an entire generation survived while sleeping on their stomachs, but then I wouldn't sleep. It's always something.
