Introducing Susannah Violet Oldford, here at 10 days old. Some would say that if she's sleeping, I should be sleeping. Some are right...
She's letting us get about 3-4 hours of sleep per night at one stretch, plus a few bonus hours in one-hour increments. When so many people welcomed my pregnancy news with "hoo boy, get all the sleep you can now, because you won't sleep once the baby comes!", I thought they were just doom-and-glooming the joy of parenting. Turns out they were right, but we don't mind so much. There are much worse reasons to be up at 2 AM than feeding and playing with a tiny person that has your eyes and your husband's ears and her great-grandma's nose. Even belching and spitting up, our Susannah's a charmer. And man, can she belch! Like a sailor, this one.
