We are coming upon night 4 of sleep training Henry....i.e, letting him cry. This goes against everything in my being but I'm tired. He is waking up more and sleeping less so I have to do something. Last night was pretty bad, but I have heard it takes 3 nights - night 2 he never woke up at all, so I actually thought he got it after just one night, but I was wrong. Anyways, we'll see how it goes tonight.

He now has 4 teeth, is almost 10 months old, weighs about 21 lbs, and he had his first ever ear infection two weeks ago. IT.WAS.HORRIBLE. Abbie has never had one so this was my first experience, and I never knew how bad they were. His temp went up to 103.5 at one point and I was very close to taking him to the ER. Fevers scare me -I am not familiar with them. Again, because Abbie has never had anything over about 100. Thankfully some motrin was able to bring it down, but I was definitely scared there for a few minutes.

I'm ready for spring. Even though this winter has been very mild, I'm just ready for longer days, and also spring means Easter, the kids birthdays, and just fun outside.

I got to go out with some girlfriends the other night. It was fun to get out even though at 9 I was yawning and having a hard time keeping my eyes open.

And Wes and I got to go on a date last weekend. We had a wonderful dinner at a steakhouse in Buckhead.

That's all for now. I'm going to try to sleep for a few minutes!
