So. We’ve got all of these “things” and “techniques” designed to help Camper fall asleep and stay asleep for a few hours at a time. First there is the lavendar lotion and bath wash provided by Johnson and Johnson, the miracle blanket, a warm bottle, then the newly aquired white noise CD we got off itunes. (Cheaper than a white noise machine…for SHIZ). But here’s the problem. If the baby somehow catches on and puts up his defenses, all of these things still make ME tired. I see him all comfy swaddled and wish it were me. I feel his warm bottle and it makes me want some hot chocolate. And after I’ve given him a warm bath and rubbed him down with sleepytime lavender, I walk around with my eyes half open in a crazy tired daze trying not to wet myself while listening to songs entited things like “Mountain Stream” and “Canyon River.”
