Some early mornings with Keegan this past week. He just couldn't settle down after his 4:30 feedings. Damn is that way too early for civilized people to be awake. Tom took him yesterday morning so I could get some sleep. I have a sore throat and am afraid I'll get sick if I don't get more rest.

It's almost like he can hear my stomach growl and wakes right up.

Alisa. 37. New Hampshire. Married for almost three years to this wonderful, funny, smart guy. Previously married. Went through in-vitro fertilization to have my five year old magical son Keegan.

I am with you on the dinner thing. My boys were the same way when they were small. Any time I wanted to eat was when they thought let's bother mommy. Hope you feel better soon. I want Spring to.
