In a few days our sweet boy will be five months old. His smile is contagious. Only I don't get to see it as much as I'd like because he sleeps SO much. So did his sister. But he is different in the way he sleeps. He no longer prefers to be swaddled. He likes to flip around and find his fingers. He does so happily and doesn't seem to need me in order to transition to sleep. Not like his sister.
It's luxurious and amazing. The start/stop time of sleep rotates so often I still bring him with me to evening activities, but there are also times that I am able to attend evening meetings solo while he dreams peacefully in his co-sleeper a top his soft wool topper. It may not always be this way, but lately, I have been able to enjoy a few opportunities to get out of the house.
On Saturday night, I was able to do a totally out of character late night dinner with a friend at an Indian Restaurant (with another friend's living social $30 coupon that was about to expire!) which was awesome. And last night I was able to attend a wonderful pre-homeschooling discussion group.
Today, I got my copy of the book about Charlotte Mason that we are reading in the discussion group and I am excited about it. In fact, I think I'm so excited that I'm going to stop writing and go read some of it now while the babe sleeps.

I taught at a Charlotte Mason school in Texas, it was a really neat experience. :) I haven't read that book, though!
