Adjustments

Well, my maternitly leave is going well. I'm happy with my decision to keep bringing Noah to daycare. He really needs the structure, and I need the time to get a schedule figured out for Naomi. He's doing very well with her so far. He wants to help feed her and hold her. Noah does get a little rough sometimes, but he's a boy, so I guess that's normal. There is a little jealousy at times, like when I'm feeding her or calming her down. That's the time when he all of a sudden needs me for some odd reason. I'm sure that's pretty normal. I'm happy that it doesn't happen all the time. We also moved Noah into a different bedroom and he has a new big bed, so that's cause for some stress for him. He calls the bed his "cool bed", so I know he likes it. Right now he's just waking up 2-3 times a night for no apparant reason. That too will pass in time (I hope sooner than later).

Naomi is doing great. We aren't on a set schedule yet, but I'm working on it. Right now she's gets up 1-2 times a night, depending when her last feeding was. I try to nap during the day when she does, but I can't sleep. The same thing happened with Noah. I think there's so much going on in my head that I can't relax enough to fall asleep. I'm sure that will change once Naomi naps at set times each day.

It's funny, but I can't remember anything from when Noah was a baby. I don't remember when he got on a schedule or anything like that. I'm hoping Naomi does get on one by summer. Once summer starts we're tackling a new obstacle: potty training!
