Tired Today

     Well, James and I got a much needed nap this morning, as I think we both only slept for about two hours last night.  After we woke up, James ate, spit up, and went back to sleep.  I, on the other hand, am trying to get some work done.  Well, to be fair, I'm procrastinating on my work by posting to the blog.  

     Last night, Grandma and I gave James a bath, and he really enjoyed it for the first time.  Previously he's been rather upset by the whole bath ordeal, but last night he calmed down enough to realize that it's really quite pleasant sitting in a pool of warm water (he even added some of his own water to the tub).  Of course, I forgot to bring his rubber ducky into the tub again.  I'm sure he'll enjoy the whole experience even more if I can ever remember that.  Nonetheless, James was not at all eager to get out.  Of course, once he did get out, he REALLY wanted to get back in as he got all cold and was generally unhappy.  He and I snuggled by the fire for a while, and he calmed back down.  Of course, as it was nighttime, that particular condition (calm) didn't last long, but it was nice while it did.  

     James has also built up his wiggling skills.  We have this special sleep positioner thing that's supposed to help keep James on his back while he sleeps.  It is basically a piece of slightly inclined foam cushion that has two removable wedges on the side to keep him centered and his head slightly elevated.  James now has the ability to wiggle himself all the way down his positioner to the bottom of his bassinet.  In the process, he also wiggles himself out of his swaddle.  Since he's inevitably already kicked off his socks, his feet tend to get cold, which makes him wake up, which makes me wake up, which makes us all very tired.  Perhaps tonight we'll try to put him to sleep in his special sleeping bag outfit.  That might help.  

     Well, I should get back to work (or, more likely, find a different way to procrastinate).  More updates later.
