This little boy has been an incredible sleeper, ever since he was born. When Mathias was two weeks old, he would sleep up to 5 hours a night. He might've even slept longer, but we were under instructions to wake him up every 3 or 4 hours to feed. Now, he's just over three months old, and is sleeping a consistent 7-9 hours a night. Last night, he even broke his record and slept for TEN HOURS. TEN! Of course, Matt and I only slept for maybe 7 of those hours, but it was still awesome.
Of course, Mathias was pretty worn out. Most of our day was the usual--fiddle-farting around the house and doing ridiculous things to get a smile out of him. We met my sister-in-law at Chili's (which was the first time we'd eaten there since Mathias was born!) for dinner...
... and suddenly Mathias was the happiest baby in the world. Lisa had him chuckling for a good twenty minutes straight! It was so adorable. Unfortunately, I'm one of those laughers that tears up. Matt was like, "What's wrong?" And I'm like, "He's just... so... funny!"
So, today, while I was eating lunch, Matt stole Mathias off my lap and started to build up his giggles again. It was the sweetest thing! I love watching them together; Matt's so amazing with him. It's like he was made to be a father.
I'm so glad he's a good sleeper! :) Oh man, making a baby laugh is SO FUN. Robert and I got Audrey laughing last night and even after she got the hiccups we couldn't stop entertaining her... because it's so fun to hear those little giggles!
