100 things: part 3, the lame sequel to the sequel
21. I'm really tired today because the baby has been up a LOT the last couple nights.
22. In fact, last night I woke up around 2am with him sleeping on my belly/chest, and I had no recollection of getting him out of the crib and into my bed.
23. So when I put him back in his crib at 2:30, he woke up several times between then and 5.
24. The night before last, he woke me up at least 4 times between 1 and 5am.
25. I don't nap during the day, so I'm pretty sleep-deprived right now.
26. Thankfully, Stu is currently feeding Daniel a bottle of pumped milk, so I get a teeny weeny little break.
27. I've started practicing piano again! Today I worked on a Mozart duet (for the fall doctoral recital) for about an hour. Daniel was an angel and spent the entire time cooing and playing with a blanket.
28. Keeping up a practice routine is really exhausting when I'm hauling him around, but every day that I practice, I feel like I've accomplished something worthwhile besides washing dishes and wiping up baby puke.
29. But it's worth it because I want to finish my D.M.A. If I don't, I'll spend the rest of my life convinced I wasted my twenties in grad school.
30. I'm too tired to think of something to write here. Sorry!

Take care, and get some sleep (if Daniel will let you)!
I eat the gassy culprits all the time, and again, haven't noticed significant changes in his behavior. Had Daniel been colicky, I would have paid much closer attention to that, but he's actually a very happy, relaxed baby most of the time. He's just fussy when he's tired (what baby isn't?)
And as far as the nut allergies go, I asked the dr about that, and she didn't seem too concerned. I can't think of anyone in my family or Stuart's family, distant relatives included, who has a nut allergy. Not that I'm chowing down on peanuts every day, but I'm not totally avoiding them, either.
He slept beautifully last night, except for 2 quick feedings, so I'm feeling a bit more re-charged today.
