I woke up to soft calls from Ellie this morning:  “Mommy.  [pause]  Mommy.  [pause]  Mommy.”

While I was getting Will’s waffles ready I heard from the high chair “Mommy.  Mommy.  Bababa” from the girl who was thirsty.

I love that she is a talker.  But I am sad that I won’t have the prolonged Momma phase that I had with Will.  Already Mommy with no real mama time!

In big news, last night she slept through the night.  She made it from 7:45 to 5am!  I rocked her for half an hour and then she slept until 8am, but I think making it all the way until 5am (a) counts as sleeping through the night, and it’s BIG.  She’s been my regular midnight waker for so long, and often my 2/3am waker, too, that I can’t believe she just gave it all up out of the blue!
