Back before Ruby was born, I used to joke all the time that I didn’t care what kind of baby I had, as long as it was a better sleeper than Ronan. Fussy, gassy, colicky, needy, whiny… I’d take it as long as we got sleep. The first week or so with Ruby was as expected. Wake, change, nurse, burp,… Read More
Head Down!
I seriously have about 10 blog topics running through my head at all times.

Following up my 3 day marathon post of a story, I haven’t got much to say. Ronan was a complete bear last night. He didn’t go to sleep easily or well, he was up at 10 and didn’t go back down until 2 am. Yes, I’m serious. I tried for almost 2 hours to put him to sleep. All of… Read More
