So, we have all recovered from our jet lag. And it was actually much easier than I anticipated to switch Molly's days and nights around. She now even sleeps either all through the night, or just gets up once. Life is beginning to settle into normal for us now. The family has begun to realize just how much a baby changes a family dynamic. In fact, right now, Molly is looking at me with a loving smile, holding out her arms wanting me to pick her up. She has a cracker in each hand and her pink panda jammies on. She wasn't nearly so cute from 4-6 this morning when she was up, inconsolable, with big tears and a snotty nose. Or when the two times I did manage to get her to sleep she woke up as soon as she was put in her crib. Or when at 6:15 this morning, Mike took over, and in 10 minutes had her sleeping in her crib. Or just a minute ago when as the last of the kids left for school and I was anticipating a nap of my own, she decided it was now time to get up and start the day. She has to go with me later this morning to the hair salon, so I hope she stays happy.
