Looking for a perfect baby...

We don't in any way, shape of form believe little Zoey to be a perfect child, but when she sleeps for 7 or 8 hours four or five times a week we start to wonder if we could have placed an ad and made out any better.

Last night Zo went to bed at about 10 pm after some fussing and failed attempts earlier and slept straight thru until 6 am when we woke her to eat. When she slipped back into sleep some 30 minutes later she cruised through another two and a half hours of slumber at which point we woke her up again. As if that wasn't enough of a reason to joke about her seeming perfection at this stage of her life the little girl rises into almost every morning all smiles and laughter.

Apologies if this kind of thing makes you rankle with anger but if we were being honest we'd tell you that such a response was exactly what we were going for when we started this whole journey. Call us shallow if you like but you can't call us fatigued.
