the essence

It's 5:15 on Saturday morning...where are you?

I've been awake for an hour. I don't want to be, I'm exhausted. But, Addison seems to be going through a growth spurt & waking up to voraciously nurse in the middle of the night. Definitely strange since she's slept through the night since 9 weeks old, hence the conclusion of a growth spurt.

She doesn't stay up long but once I'm awake at night I can't always fall right back into sleep. This time I laid in bed for half an hour before finally succombing to the hunger pangs (that's another thing, once I'm awake for too long at night I get very hungry) & heating up some leftovers.

If I thought I could fall back asleep I'd get right into bed. Today is not looking like it'll be much fun....
