Has This Happened to You?

Apparently, we're keeping our kid up.

It is 2am, and you hear your baby fussing in the baby monitor. You roll over thinking, "maybe he'll hold out another hour until his next scheduled feeding."

But no, your kid is up and he/she wants you to be also. So, being the loving, conscientious parent you are, you go to your kid.

Then your baby feeds for five minutes, and he has an attack of narcolepsy. You unswaddle and rouse him a bit, to same effect.

You change his diapers. Kid sleeps through it...his butt didn't, of course...but kid does.

He feeds for 10 minutes, perhaps in his sleep, and he's out again.

At some point, you're like..."Hey, kid! Are we keepin' you up??"

Then you try to put him back in his crib, and guess what? Baby is hungry again. Eyes are WIDE OPEN, his arms are doing the cute little Superman thing (one arm extended and ending in a fist, the other pulled in close to his body, gathering super-baby powers...I guess).

Ahhhhh. We love our baby Max.

Wait, I think mommy has found success!

Good night, people...I hope!
