What is sleep?


Last night was the first night that we were going to be firm and start the process of getting Ely used to soothing himself to sleep. After a nice shower Ely fell asleep at 9pm. He woke up at midnight and cried but luckily he fell back asleep after a few minutes. At 1:30 he woke up again and started to cry. This time he was louder and sounded pretty mad. We left him alone for another 15 minutes before I went to feed him. At one point, his eyes were wide open and I quietly told him that it wasn't time to wake up yet. He slept until 4:30 am. He ate again and slept by my side before I had to wake up again in another hour.

We are hoping that Ely will sleep through the night once he is 6 months of old.

Tomorrow I am going to take Ely to our coworkers home for a happy hour. We'll see how Ely does. We may not be able to stay long enough for the boat tour to find Ichiro's home.
