Is this real life?

Langston officially slept through the night.

Okay, so it only happened once, but it was glorious.
I did absolutely nothing different than every other night, but somehow, it just happened. After bath and jammie time, I fed him the usual 6 ounces with the lights dimmed and he drifted off to sleep by 10pm. I soon followed and  the next thing I know, I wake up and check the clock and it's 6am. Six o'clock am! It never looked so beautiful.

In the nights that followed, he was back to getting up once a night at 2:30am. Not that I'm complaining, though. I consider myself a very lucky mama to have a baby that only wakes up once a night. He gets a full belly, and I get to continue my ongoing Grey's Anatomy marathon on Netflix. It's a win-win.

I don't really think there's a trick to getting your baby to sleep through the night. Breastfed vs. formula fed, cloth diapers vs. disposable, I'm pretty sure it's all up to baby.

As much as I'd love a full nights sleep, how could I choose sleep over that cute face?
