1. We are trying to get Breslin on stricter sleeping schedule, overall it has gone pretty well. He is able to put himself to sleep at night in the crib with little or no fuss at all around 7:30. Then it seems that around 11:30 he will wake up no fail, and it is struggle for us to get him calmed down and back to bed. I think he wants to eat, or the comfort of suckling (and since Breslin doesn't do a pacifier, the only way to get his suckling need is by nursing) however he doesn't need to, so we are not giving in, and just trying to comfort him back to bed. Besides that 11:30 time slot it has gone over pretty well. He seems more well rested and much happier. Brady and I have decided to go on an every other night duty, one night Brady will get up if Brez wakes up, the next night I will get up. (However it seems like my nights Breslin gets up the most or stays up the longest.... lol). I think Breslin knows that it's mommy in the room with him and he knows that he can get mommy's milk from me. We are definitely not a cry it out family, so we are doing the Sleep Lady Shuffle at night, this does require a few tears, which is super hard for me, but in the end everyone will be much happier and we won't be dealing with sleep issues as much when he is older. Here goes to another week of the Sleep Lady Shuffle!
2. This week seemed to last FOREVER, and on top of it grades are due, oops, I had no idea. Somebody (that's name rhymes with Bennifer) will be doing grades this weekend. Let's hope MSU wins in football, or else some of the grades might be kind of low... ;) jk jk.
3. I have finally admitted to my new found addiction to Starbucks (and I truly don't think it is because of the caffeine. Their vanilla latte with soy is amazing to my taste buds. I have to drink it with soy because of the dairy issue with Breslin).
4. Only two more weeks of regular season football. :_ ( A tear is shed. But on the plus side, Brady and I put in our request for tickets to the B1G Championship game on December 3. If we make it, we will be going. Unfortunately that is the same weekend as the half marathon I signed up for. Let's think about this for a moment; run 13.4 miles OR watch MSU play in the first ever B1G Championship game. Hmmmmm. If I don't end up running the half marathon in Vegas, there is one in Pasadena in February. I think I will sign up for that one.
5. I went to Target the other day and was very disappointed. We are having Thanksgiving on Friday at our house again this year, and I have little to no Thanksgiving decorations so I wanted to pick up a few items. It seems that every year Christmas gets longer and longer. Don't get me wrong, I love Christmas, but for Christmas to have that special feel I can't have it last too long. I went to Target and I couldn't find any Thanksgiving items at all. But, boy oh boy, was there quite a bit of Christmas items. I know stores are just finding a way to make a little money with our economy and what not, but seriously, some items were out just after Halloween (I think Costco had items out before Halloween). Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, and that is why I was bummed out by this. I don't want it to be looked over :( Oh well, I guess I saved some money... Brady should be happy by this!
