......and even better (WAY better) than the Thanksgiving celebration......

....Sam officially has "slept through the night!".  Thanksgiving night we got him down fairly easily at just after 10pm and headed to bed ourselves. Normally, he would be up around 3-4 am and I actually got up and looked at my clock at 3:45am, 4:00am, 4:30am and then at 5am, I got up and actually had to pump as I couldn't "sleep through the night" and put one bottle to the side.  Finally at 6:15, Sam roused to eat and we got up, but that was a solid 8 hours!  I'm not sure if the extra bottle and a half on top of nursing yesterday or the overstimulation at the party wore him down, but whatever it was, it was awesome.  I'm not so naive to believe this will happen from here on out - I have learned that lesson that you never have them figured out!

 Here's hoping for many repeat performances from Sam and 8 hours of sleep.  The timing would be wonderful with having to go back to work next week!
