Fear

What is fear? Fear is what you feel as you sit in your office late one night, and the swing your son sits to go to sleep in is running out of battery juice. Its still moving, but barely. I'm not sure if he will be more apt to wake up if he's not moving. Erika won't be too happy if I have to wake her up before midnight...

Why is our son in a swing at 11:30pm? Thats where he starts his night. The last two nights he's been in that chair for 5 hours as Erika got some well needed and deserved sleep. I stay up with him while he's in his swing, and then when he wakes its Erika's shift. After Erika takes over she feeds him, and then he goes to his crib. Crib time has mixed results. Some nights good, some nightsnot so good. Then around 6am-ish, Erika brings him into our bed (as she kicks me out of bed to go to work) to round of the night with hopefully one or two more hours of sleep.

Oh no... it stopped...

Anyways, thats our bedtime routine. Kind of messed up but its working for us for now.
