Up All Night

It might be a funny new comedy to many, but this phrase represents our reality right now.  We honestly don't know what is up with Jax's sleeping right now.  He has never been a STTN (sleep through the night) kind of guy, but he used to let us get a little rest with 4-5 hour stretches and some longer ones thrown in for good measure.  Well not anymore.  Jax is back to the sleeping patterns he had as a newborn and we have been getting up more and more at night.  The only consistent thing is he goes to bed at the same time each night and is pretty easy to get down.   

Don't be fooled by this innocent expression, he is up to no good at nighttime!

We have been waiting until after he turned 6 months old to see if we need to do some sleep training.   I really am not looking forward to it, but I know my little guy needs to establish some better sleep habits for himself (and for us!). 

"But MOM, I don't want to take a nap, I want to play!'

We will see how it goes over the next few weeks.  All I know is Jasper and I are in need of some more sleep so we can keep up with a 6 month old who looks like this in the morning!
