Well the good news is is that Kai is having some nice long sleeps at night, nine hours being the longest. He still loves to put up a fight when it's nap-time during the day but at night, like clockwork, he goes down.
This has meant that Kelly and I now get nice long sleeps ourselves. The first few times this happened, at the slightest sound that Kai makes in the mornings, Kelly fairly sprinted out of bed to check on him before I, who had been listening to him go "Ehhh!" occasionally for about half an hour, can sit up.
When he does wake though he is so happy to see us and us to see him. He fixes you in his gaze and you can see the realization dawn on him that WE are there. He is calm, quiet and even enjoys being changed. As long as he can see you with his big, blue (for now?) eyes.
All this sleeping means that Kelly and I are seeing a lot more of each other these days. We can actually cook together and eat dinner at the same time (sometimes). A movie isn't out of the question either. Kai, while still demanding, is less intrusive and it's becoming easier to read the signs which makes him a lot less stressed and us a lot happier.
You'll find that life is still worthwhile,
If you just smile.
