DAILY SNACK

Sleep is becoming difficult

With Irene.

We’re living in the nether zone between two naps and one, for one.

And night-waking is starting to wear me out.

I guess I’ve been kinda nursing her down,

Which I NEVER did with this girl when she was a newborn

Because it didn’t work.

She was sleeping through the night at 8 months

And went down for naps in an instant.

Not any more.

We did some sleep training with Colum at this age,

I remember.

And it worked, too.

But it was so hard.

I just don’t have the heart to go through that with Irene.

Not yet, not right now.

So, yes, make that an extra-large coffee

And please don’t mention the bags.

Thanks.
