fake-outs

well it seems as though oak boy has the fake out mastered. we put him down around midnight (after eating, changing, story and cuddling). at 3:43 a.m., he started stirring in his distinctive, 'i'm ready to eat so you had better get up NOW and feed me' manner. FAKE-OUT #1. he settled himself down, so i went back to bed. 10 minutes later, same siren, and then FAKE-OUT #2. i figured it wouldn't be long before he really was ready to eat, so i warmed his bottle up and went back to bed again. it felt like i had only closed my eyes for a minute, when, before i knew it, it was 4:43 a.m., and he had the 'stir' going on. FAKE-OUT #3. but this time i figured that i had better get him up and change and feed him. so i did, and he really wasn't having it. about three ounces and twenty minutes later, he was back in his bed and i was back in ours. delicious sleep :-)
