The dazed look on my face might be related to my sleepless nights the last two nights.....night before last was just restless. I felt like I woke every thirty minutes or so all night long. Last night, too many things on my mind, in and out of bed after laying awake for hours, and finally asleep at 3:30 am after Jax woke to nurse.
Jax on the other hand, had his best night of sleep EVER. He slept eight hours straight, then slept another two hours, then two more hours, a total of twelve hours only interrupted by two feedings! He's growing up. I missed him. I kept wanting him to wake up sooner so I could cuddle with him. When he finally woke up, he spent a little time cooing and sucking on his fists before he started to cry. Then after he nursed, he laid awake in my arms for a little while, looking at the little green LED light on the fire alarm on the ceiling, and making contented sounds.
Eventually we both fell asleep together, and I finally slept, sweet sleep. Every night before Jax falls asleep, I pray that he will get the amount of sleep he needs, that the Lord will help him sleep longer and longer each night. I guess I need to add myself to that request! There must be something about motherhood that permanently affects your ability to sleep deeply.
But about our outfits... it's pretty simple today. I just wanted to wear muted, gentle, neutral colors. My foggy brain didn't want to be wearing anything too vibrant. I also realized that a lot of 3-6 month shirts actually still fit Jax. So I went back to the box of things I had put away, and pulled out shirts in that size. It's the things that fit over his length, like rompers, onesies, and pajamas, that he's grown out of so quickly. This is one of the shirts that got resurrected, and is size three months. The shorts are twelve month size, but it's not his tush they need to fit over; it's his gigantic cotton prefold cloth diaper!
