We had kind of a small small group tonight with just the Kays and Mike Nowak. We finished up the Not It series. I hate to admit this, but I fell asleep while we were watching the message. That’s nothing against Mike Ashcraft’s preaching, of course. I was just beat.
We put Milly to bed a little early tonight in order to maximize our small group time and, also I guess, to keep her from getting too worked up with a bunch of people being over. Since we’ve been putting her in the crib the schedule has been that we put her down between 7:30 and 8:00 then wake her up at about 11:00 for a feeding, then she wakes up between 3:00 and 3:30 for a feeding then she sleeps until 6:00 or 6:30, at which time we let her sleep in the bed until we get up between 8:00 and 9:00.
That’s all gone fine, and she’s actually been really, really good about going to sleep each time we put her down. She hasn’t fussed at all that I can think of at any time that we put her down, which is great, and she usually sleeps just fine. Oddly though, she woke up around 9:00 I guess and was very fussy. To her credit, she did have a blowout in her pants. I took care of it. I think I was able to effectively join the small group conversation once I rejoined them, despite the time taken for Milly’s unexpected wake up.
As tired as I am, Amanda and I are switching tonight. She’s got the 11:00 feeding and I’m taking the 3:00.
