    i can't believe it, it finally happened! the boys ate at 5:30, we did baths and bedtime at 7:00, and we didn't hear another peep out of them until 1:30. that's 8 hours between bottles, totally unprecedented! we did a quick feeding and put them back down, fully expecting to be back up again in 3 hours. nope, we woke up at 6:00 and raced upstairs to make sure the boys were okay. they were fine, of course. i was late to work because i don't set an alarm anymore (because the baby alarm usually gets me up, of course :p ). what do i do with all this extra sleep???

    fingers crossed we have a repeat performance tonight.

    Isn't it funny that they both decide to do the same thing on the same night??!!

    they're such teases. no repeat performance last night. they did go longer between feedings, but now that i've had a taste of sweet sweet slumber, i can't wait for it to become a regular thing.

    So, that is considered sleeping through the night?!? We get that, and I am greedy - I want more! I guess I should be happy that is what they do but they have been doing that for a couple of months now and I was really hoping that they would be going a little longer by now - guess I will be really happy in a few months when they really do make it all night! They did it twice (7:30 AM - 6:30 AM) before they got sick and that was a real tease!!!

    at this age 5 uninterrupted hours is considered sleeping through the night (i've seen it noted as "midnight through 5 a.m.). hey, i'll take it. it's a hell of a lot better than every 3 hours nonstop around the clock.

    we've had two more nights where they've slept for 7-8 hours straight, up for a quick bottle, then back down until we get them up around 6. i don't want to jinx it but it feels like it might stick. yay!
