Who needs an alarm clock...

...when you have a baby. For the past couple of days, Dax has decided that he wants to wake up around 5 a.m. Yep, you heard me...the crack of dawn! This is not the first time he's done this, but my good little sleeper has been waking up at 7:30. The first night, he fell back asleep. The second he screamed bloody murder until we gave in and fed him. This morning, he did his usual I'm sleepy whining but couldn't go back to sleep. I finally went in there and after about 15 minutes, got him back to sleep. Yay success! Went back to the bedroom and gloated a little to Mike before I crawled back into bed. Not a minute passed after I closed my eyes that the whining started again. Ugh. That's what I get for gloating. And this time, there was no shushing back to sleep. He was screaming bloody murder again. So we gave in and Mike fed him. Not sure what's going on. Maybe this is his way of saying that we are not feeding him enough during the day? I don't think he's ready to start his day at 5 because he does go back to sleep until 8 or 8:30. Or maybe this is his way of telling me to get my butt out of bed and workout. Who knows. I'm hoping it's a phase he'll grow out of by tomorrow morning. Keeping my fingers crossed!
