That’s The Number After Six!
February 10, 2006
In all my dental excitement this morning, I forgot to mention this monumental milestone.
Last night, for the first time in thirteen months and twenty nine days, Miles slept for more than three consecutive hours. Much more.
He fell asleep during The Office, which I can’t understand how he could fall asleep and miss that show, which was around 9:45pm and he did not wake up until 4:45. That is SEVEN HOURS. Seven hours all in a row.
Which means that I slept for four hours all in a row, which hasn’t happened since I was in my second trimester pregnant with him. I woke up so disoriented from all that REM sleep. And then I had trouble falling back asleep because I felt so well rested.
I’m sure it was just a fluke. He probably sensed that I just wrote about sleep and how I was okay with him waking up during the night, and now he is going to toy with me.
Which reminds me I don’t think I used the word “which” enough in this post either. I must make a note to myself which says use the word “which” whenever possible, shunning all other words which might work better. And start more sentences with the word “and”

February 10th, 2006 at 8:35 pmDo you ever get used to sleep deprivation? I’m surprised you didn’t say you hadn’t slept through the night since the third trimester of your FIRST pregnancy.
February 10th, 2006 at 8:53 pmWoo hoo Miles!
I can only imagine how well rested he was! 7 hours that is awesome!
February 10th, 2006 at 10:49 pmYou must have so much energy now that you got a good night’s sleep.
February 11th, 2006 at 1:20 amcongratulations! you didn’t say why you woke up after four hours, but i’m guessing it was to check on him?
way to go miles!
February 11th, 2006 at 7:51 amYay for sleep! Isn’t that the best?
February 11th, 2006 at 10:08 amI am sending him sleepy vibes…
My first two didn’t sleep through the night until they were 15 - 18 months old. My last one, slept through the night at six weeks and has done that ever since. I thought this was only a mommy fable until it actually happened to me…
February 11th, 2006 at 12:08 pmCongrats to Miles!!
I love to start sentences with the word “and”. Makes for a good grammatical structure.
February 11th, 2006 at 12:08 pmEnglish teachers everywhere are weeping.
February 11th, 2006 at 2:36 pmI feel great about the way which you used the word which and I wish you happy sleeping which is a good thing.
February 12th, 2006 at 4:03 amAll right Miles and Mom, way to go. And all right for another fan of “The Office”! I love that show! Too bad my dh’s boss is like that in real life. Maybe that is why we find it hilarious.
February 13th, 2006 at 4:01 pmThanks for your posts. I do have to squeeze some brainy juice which is tough for me coz’ I have very little. LOL!
