Surviving the Weekend!

Well, the weekend is over and for once that's a good thing! Jeff left Friday at noon for London to be in a wedding and didn't get back till today. I wish I could have gone too but we didn't think it was a good idea for Cole. I wasn't too enthusiastic about looking after him during a crying spell and if history is any indication there seemed to be a pretty good chance of one happening in new surroundings with lots of people. Thankfully, the weekend went well here... my arms just didn't get their usual break!
Cole is doing well sleeping through the night and has been for over a week straight now. I wish I could say the same for myself=/ Jeff and me are both hoping a return to more restful nights as we work on getting Cole adjusted to his crib. We've just started putting him down for his naps there and so far it seems to be going pretty well although he doesn't seem to be able to put himself back to sleep in the new surroundings as easily as he does in our room. Hopefully in a little more time this will become easier for him. Nursing is getting better as Cole is getting a little faster and we're now down to six feedings/day (7a,10a,1p,4p,7p,10p) I'm already looking forward to dropping the dream feed (10p) in a months time. Bedtime is also going better now as I've stopped trying to cluster feed and we've got a bit more of a routine... bath, massage, pj's, song, story then nighty-night.
Well, ready for another week. This week I'm really looking forward to a change of pace (and some champagne... chilling now!) with my friend Alison visiting again. Cheers!
