Well, a personal record of sleep ... but remarkable nonetheless. (Note: I'm sure someone else's baby's sleep is never actually "remarkable," and I did have a more interesting blog entry planned for today, but hey -- this is record-breaking sleep we're talking about!)
So Trixie Tracker has a sleep statistics feature which keeps track of your child's lifetime sleep records. Izzy earned records in two categories last night: he got his top mark ever for longest single sleep (8 hours, 42 minutes) and came in with his third best for most overnight sleep (11 hours, 30 minutes). I could hardly believe it when I woke up to the sounds of the baby monitor at 8:40 a.m. this morning. I felt refreshed and rested.
To what do I attribute this marathon of sleep? After his normal 50-minute nap yesterday morning, Isaac was awake for nine hours straight prior to his bedtime, so maybe he was just tuckered out. (Well, he did have a brief ten-minute catnap in the afternoon.) And what are the results of said marathon? Today he hasn't napped at all. (Well, he did have a brief 12-minute catnap this afternoon.)
I can't really complain: just like yesterday, he's been in a remarkably good mood despite the lack of sleep, so it isn't like either of us is suffering. It's just that when he doesn't nap, it's a whole lot of baby, if you know what I mean. That's two days running with a whole lot of baby. I have a big list of things to get done before Isaac's birthday party, and although he makes charming company, he isn't helping me to get any of it done. TCB, indeed.
(But he is cooperating with my blogging! He's entertaining himself by trying to climb out of his crib as I sit in his room and write this.)
