Week 3: Ready for sleep!

Big events during the third week:

• Hudson looks at me and smiles (or is it gas?)
• TWO nights of sleeping 5 hours (HORRAY!!!)
• I take all three children grocery shopping- and don't run out of the store screaming!
• Caroline enters the room holding Hudson by the HEAD (EEEEEEK) (I'm still recovering from this incident, however Hudson slept through the whole thing.)
• I survive three full days and nights while PR is on travel.
• Hudson bathes with the kids, wailing the entire time
• I discover Hudson prefers sleeping on his tummy- ug!
• Hudson discovers the mystical ceiling fan and is completely enamored
• Hudson and I dance to Nora Jones while the kids play with playdough (I think he remembers the music from when we played it in the hospital)
• Hudson has still not gained his birth weight, though it seems as if he's nursing 18 hours a day (okay, I'm exaggerating...I don't feed him more often than every 2 1/2 hours...but I still feel like he's permanently attached to me!)
• I still have 8 pounds to go but would really rather sleep than exercise
• I cleaned the floors AND did 6 loads of laundry- woo hoo!!!
• I lust for a magical fairy or elf to clean my bathrooms every week.
• Hudson made some sort of cute cooing sound today (different from his sighs and grunts) that made it all worth it.
