sleep

Hudson seems to finally be figuring out going to bed - at nighttime anyway. He's been crying for about 30 minutes or so and then falling asleep. (Although I say that and he cried for an hour and a half tonight before he fell asleep.) Our newest problem is now he has started waking up around 4 am and won't go back to sleep even after I nurse him. He's never done that before - he always used to nurse and then go right back to sleep, but no more! We have tried just letting him lay in bed and cry and going in every 20-30 minutes and soothing him - neither has worked so far. So he cries till at least 6:00 am and then one of us will get up with him. Of course then he's ready for a nap by 8 am - but let's not talk about naps - he still doesn't understand what those are!
Maybe I should quit taking pictures of him while he is sleeping - probably waking him up!
But at least he wakes up happy!
