11:15 pm/ 6:15 am

...That's when "Baby Elliott" (as some of the kids we have seen lately call him) ate last night/this morning! This is the longest he has ever slept at night. I thought the clock was playing some kind of joke on me when I looked at it this morning. But, sure enough, a second look revealed that I had, in fact, seen it correctly through my blurry, barely awake vision. Elliott not only slept for a good long while; he was also so sweet this morning. None of that screaming that often goes along with him having to wait for food took place in our household. He just looked at me with those big eyes and that innocent little face and waited patiently for his bottle. 

So, for the record, Baby Elliott is 9 weeks, 5 day old today and is drinking 3.75 ounces of breastmilk per feeding at about every 2 1/2-3 hours. In addition, his Mommy is feeling more like a person this morning and less like a zombie for the first time in a while. This is an occasion worth documenting in the Peek household!
