Monday: sleep

Last night Isaac finally decided he didn't need to wake up every hour, and it was wonderful.  The last week and a half or so has been rather rough.  He kept escaping from the swaddle so we finally just removed it.  Which helped some, but then every time his pacifier fell out he woke up.  Needless to say, Ben and I were both getting tired of it.  It's amazing how a few uninterrupted hours of sleep can make the day go so much better.

What did I do differently last night?
*He seemed very tired going to bed
*I put him in a onsie instead of pajamas.  It was warm out.
*He started sucking the palm of his hand.
*The stars aligned just right.

Hopefully tonight will go well too.  The beginning has gone well, so I'm going to take that as a good sign.
