Sleeping?

It appears there is a lot of sleep going on in this house . . .

Nathan sleeps fairly well, most of the time. He goes to bed usually around 10pm, wakes once (which takes about 45 minutes) and the wakes again around 5:30am and is awake for a while. I haven't had a baby sleep this well before. I am very happy.

As for the rest of my kiddos, they attempt to fall asleep around 8pm and I roust them out of bed at 6:45am. They all usually sleep through the night with an occasional wake-up.

The problem lies with the amount of sleep I am getting. Can you ever really get enough? I go to sleep after Nathan around 10:30pm. I am awake for the 3am feeding lasting 45 minutes (why do newborns take so long to eat?). Nathan then wakes for the morning at 5:30am and I have to get up at 6:30 to get Taneal and Camie out the door by 7:30am. So, although there is a lot of sleep going on by the children, I think I am getting about 6 hours each night. I typically need more, but it is amazing how much less sleep you need when you aren't pregnant. The only napper in my house is the newborn baby. If Spencer takes a nap, bedtime is a nightmare, so I try to not let him fall asleep or I am up until midnight with him. Naps just aren't worth it.
