baby Doodle redeems himself

Last night and today, thus far, baby Doodle has been a joy. It is amazing how different one day can be from the next. Last night baby Doodle slept in his co-sleeper (crib attached to my side of the bed) for 3 and 4 hours at a time. He even went happily into the co-sleeper before he was sound asleep. He laid there for about 20 minutes "talking" to himself and looking around before he fell asleep.

After his feedings today he has burped without getting upset and seems not to have baby heart burn, at least today. I would like to think that this is the beginning of a more mature phase that he has begun but I know tonight could be just as bad as Friday night when he didn't sleep for more than an hour and a half at a time.

When I get a "good" night of sleep I feel so much better emotionally than when I don't. If only baby Doodle could routinely sleep for long periods of time at night, I would be consistently happy.
