Sleeping In

I was "blessed" with a baby that wakes with the sun. That's alright during the winter but now when the sun rises at 5 in the morning, I go a little crazy. I am NOT a morning person. Well, Eric and I have a system of whose turn it is to get up with him but because Eric goes to work early I still end up getting up at 6:30 so that he can get ready for work. Well, this morning was his morning and he had nowhere that he had to be so I slept until, are you ready? 8:00!!! I don' remember the last time I slept in that late. I so needed it. I woke up happy, which Eric needed as well. It's got to get old waking up to a bear each morning. It is my belief that a big part of PostPartem depression is sleep deprivation. But again, I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Hey I totally understand, both of mine are up with sun. Even when we try and keep them up late they still get up super early.

But Tony and I take turns too.

At least I only have one. I don't know what you do with more than one. You have a much less likely chance that they will both sleep in.
