Nighttime Feedings and Snazzy Book Cover

I'm sure you all have been eagerly awaiting news on how my night of feeding PrettyGirl went. It went OK, at least at first. I had the alarm set for 12:30 AM, since she sacked out a little early and would probably need to be fed by then. PG agreed with that assessment wholeheartedly and woke us up a good 10 or 20 seconds before the alarm went off. That first feeding went fine, except for PG taking her own sweet time getting back to sleep. I think I had her back in her bassinet around 1:45.

She gave me another 3 hours or so of sleep before putting in another request for milk. I don't remember much about that feeding. The first time had knocked my sleep cycle enough out of whack that I was already a bit loopy. I do remember noting that it was already kinda light out at 5:30 AM while I was bouncing her back to sleep. The 7:30 AM feeding is a similar blur, only with more sunlight.

I don't know how M does it every gorram night. I was pretty much useless as a functioning human being on Sunday until I had a nap that afternoon. And PG had been a relatively sleepy baby that night! Some nights, M has to get up every hour and a half!

Oh well. At least next time I'll have a better idea of what to expect, now that I've done it.

********************
I mention in the comments on one of the recently-uploaded pictures that I took a bunch of pictures of PG because I didn't have anything really usable for a class project. I thought you all might like to see what the class project ended up looking like.



M mentioned wanting to print out all the Baby 2K7 and PG posts, so I thought I'd design a cover for such a collection. I didn't have any pictures of PG that worked well with the concept of pasting excerpts of the blog onto her onesie, so I put her on the floor, made the onesie as wrinkle-free as possible, and got what I needed!

PG's hair is starting to grow back, so if M wants to get that picture of her two baldies, she's gonna have to get it soon!
