Joseph 2.0

I hope this isn't premature, but it seems we've fixed some of the bugs in the whole daytime/night-time sleeping/feeding routine. Just as we had resigned ourselves to months of an aggravating schedule of him sleeping all day long and waking up at 11:00PM to cry and fuss, he seems to have settled in to a more human pattern. That's good, because I was starting to think my boss was onto something regarding that "E.T." comment.

And not only is he learning how good sleeping at night can be, he's also finally figured out the path of least resistance to a full belly. "Oooohhhh," he said to me recently, "So screaming and shaking my head WON'T fill me up faster..."

That's right, kiddo.

In fact, last night I was able to feed him with a bottle--something he hasn't traditionally gotten along with--and let mommy get some sleep. Joseph pretty much inhaled the bottle's contents, promptly burped, and fell asleep on my shoulder.

Cute days...
