Yesterday’s noble optimism has been clouded by today’s lack of sleep.
He just didn’t sleep today. From 5 a.m. on. Okay, he took mini naps, nap-ettes at 3 and 5. And wouldn’t go to sleep until after 8, and after exhaustive effort on our part to make it so. Who is THIS boy?
He’s also less and less a fan of his pacifier lately. I wonder if this has something to do with the sleep disruption? He needs to learn a new way to soothe himself? We had one of our crying-together jags in the car on the way to our stroller consultation. Neither of us was happy about his not sleeping.
And today I forgot to bring bags with me when I left the house, so I didn’t go to the Farmers’ market. I don’t think that’s the point of making resolutions, but that’s what happened. Not that Mr. Happy was really in a state to accompany me anyway. He fussed through lunch with a friend, slept briefly in the stroller, and then nursed a lot at a local mom-and-baby store where they have lots of plush seating and a public changing table for our out-in-the-world comfort, while I discussed strollers with the mom who worked there — as she nursed her daughter; probably one of the only places you CAN nurse at work.
No, I did not buy a new stroller today. Still can’t decide.
