Who is the winner?

I don't know, anymore, how many times I wake up each night to help Nathaniel get back to sleep. Amanda can't tell either. We often work together to try to piece together whether he slept through the night, and we find we're just not sure.

So does that mean we're sleeping so well that even when we do get up it doesn't really interrupt our sleeping patterns? That seems like we have won this battle of wills with Nathaniel (OK, it's not much of a battle ... but it feels like it when you're as exhausted as we have been at times).

Or does it mean Nathaniel has won because he can wake us up as often as he wants without us even noticing (like he has us wrapped around his finger)?

Hmm. I'm going to take this as both sides winning. Then I'm going to take a nap. That way, everything will be better.

Have you thought about white noise in the back ground? Maybie a fan or theres plenty of white noise machines you can buy. Maybie it's just to quiet. Just a thought. Good luck.

Hello Mark,

Nathaniel is just so adorable. Chris' idea about white noise is a good idea.

I sometimes need that myself to fall asleep. We always run a fan (winter and summer) for help in falling asleep.
