Markus sleeps!

For the last week or so, Markus has been going to sleep around 8:00-9:00 p.m. and waking up around 6:00-7:00 a.m. pretty consistently. From what we hear, we're very lucky. On the one hand it's nice because Sandra and I get to relax at night, but it's tough for me because I miss the little guy. I get home and I get to bathe him, change him, and feed him his last meal. He then falls asleep (although that can be difficult sometimes as he gets fussy before falling asleep).

When I walk in to his room in the morning, he's usually waking up. The first thing he does when he sees me is smile and make noises. It's truly heart-melting.

Don't get me wrong...I'm glad he's sleeping peacefully and not crying all night, but I also miss him.

Our next appointment with the pediatrician is on the 7th (next Saturday). More shots, and we're also planning on introducing some foods to him (rice cereal, or something like that) after the appointment. We'll see how it goes.

This is the picture I currently have of Markus as my desktop background:

He is so precious! I love this picture. :) And yes, from what I hear too, you are very lucky that he sleeps through the night!

Sounds like he's on the same schedule as Tyler is now! LOL. Except for when Joe is traveling and then he stays up until 10:30-11. Lucky me :) He is such a cutie! I can't wait to see him again (and you guys too of course)!
