another late night thought

as i was up from 1:30-3:30 this morning with Caitlin i thought to myself how i would pay good money for someone to take care of her all night so that both me and chris could get a solid nights sleep for once. if i could start a business like that i'd call it Night Nannies! wouldnt that be a nice service? that person would be responsible for feeding, changing her diapers, calming down her cries, plus the time consuming process of burping the baby all while me and chris got some good sleep. see, i wouldnt want friends and family to do this because after one night they'd have enough and not want to do it again, so it would have to be someone different. and it would be even better if there was a soundproof room in our house where the baby could stay at night, that way when she cries we wouldnt hear her and feel obligated to get up and check on her because the nanny was taking care of it. ah,what a dream!!

Although, it sounds like an awesome idea, think of all the bonding time that you have. I remember waking up with Jonothan and trying to get him to calm down and was asked 5 lb bags of sugar don't cry in the middle of the night do they? I cried and said no.

you would still worry about caitlin in someone else's care. sorry - you're a mommy now and you will never sleep the same again :)...because you will be up thinking about her and wondering how she is...lol. jacob spent the night out for the first time a few weeks ago and i couldnt not sleep - tossed and turned all night. ugh. not to worry though, you wont be this exhausted forever. i promise!
