Regarding Jeremiah.

He sleeps quite a bit and we are on somewhat of a schedule now...needs to be tweaked a little bit but really, I think he does very well.

In the evening he falls asleep around 9:00 or so and then wakes up anywhere between 11:00 and midnight for a diaper change and feeding. Then he is AWAKE. Bright eyes, cooing, smiling. He plays for maybe 30 minutes to an hour (despite mommy not playing...he's totally interested in his hands)and then drops off to sleep for the night. Up for a diaper change and feeding between 3:30 and 4:30....drops back to sleep until 5:00-5:30 at which point he is UP and wants active play. We play with him and then he goes back to sleep which really works out fine with us. That gives me time in the morning to do morning household chores, make breakfast, pack Pete's lunch and some quiet time with Pete (breakfast conversations are always the best time of day here). Jeremiah is back up at 9:00ish and we begin our day.
   
I'm sure he will sleep through the night soon enough. Right now, I'll settle for 5 hours of sleep at once. :)
