Almost forgot. . .

I almost forgot the REALLY exciting news. Last night for the first time in probably 5 months or so (including the last few of my pregnancy)I was able to sleep through the night! And no, it wasn't because someone else took care of Ella for me--she just didn't wake up until 7 am! Now, I did wake up to Brad's alarm at 5:30 and snuck in her room to make sure she was still breathing. As soon as I confirmed that she was, I went back to my peaceful slumber. I forgot how good it feels to sleep uninterrupted. I definitely have more of a spring in my step today. Hopefully, this will be a new pattern we can enjoy into the future!
