A Full Night's Sleep!

So right after my last entry Shaun started sleeping through the night. I had talked to Sheri that day and told her about him waking at 5AM. Sheri told me that Shaun was able to sleep longer than 5AM and she encouraged me to let him cry. So 5AM came and he woke, fussed 5 minutes (really!) and went back to sleep. I couldn't believe it. The next week-and-a-half he slept all the way through almost every night. Only a couple of nights he would wake and cry... one night he cried for almost an hour! But now he's not waking at all so this weekend we're going to my parents house and they're going to babysit. His first babysitters! We'll go out for dinner in London and then probably to Yuk-Yuk's or a Jazz bar of some sort. Mum and Dad will give Shaun his 8PM feeding and then take him to the meeting in the morning. He'll have is 11AM feeding whle at the meeting. It'll be interesting to hear what everyone thinks of him! He waking up... duty calls!
