the grass is greener...

I got together with a few of my mommy friends tonight. It was a nice night out with daddy picking up baby from me for a bit so I could enjoy my dinner and friends. Aerowyn was SUCH a good girl at the restaurant while we waited for daddy. Everyone commented on how good she was, how well she ate, how they couldn't do that with their same-age toddlers. So do I have the perfect baby?? I was quick to remind them as they were saying how jealous they were... that my little angel still wakes up every 2 hours at night to nurse and thinks naps are a joke. Sleeping through the night is some foreign concept that I cannot fathom (although she did it for a couple of weeks at 3 months). Although a full night of sleep sounds heavenly, I don't think I'd change anything. I like our private time and I know that the day will come that she doesn't want to nurse or cuddle with me at night and I'll miss her. So for now, a sleepy me will continue to love our extra cuddle time and enjoy the wonderful angel that she is during her waking hours. Of course waking ever 4 hours instead of every 2 would be a welcome change.
