Thinking of:
1. Taking a trip to Paris with an infant. We could handle it! Of course, we couldn't afford it.
2. In lieu of 1, trying to think of extra fun things to do on Martha's Vineyard, instead of the usual lie around/wander into town/go to the grocery store/go to the beach at 4 pm.
3. Casper will be ONE YEAR OLD in two months! Should we have a birthday party? I think so! In fact, trying hard to resist the idea of inviting everyone we know.
4. Very, very, very tired. Went to medical center library and got four books on infant sleep, the only one of which seems at all useful is the dreaded Ferber. May attempt dreaded Ferber method. Worry that it will catastrophically disrupt breastfeeding schedule, though. Probably will attempt in half-assed way and then give up, leading to no sleep progress, if past actions are any evidence. Still, desperately want more sleep. Also willpower to stick with a method. Also, unrelatedly, pronouns.
5. In over my head in parent-advocacy group leadership. Not sure where we're going.
6. Did I mention tired?

mr. flea comes home at 11pm. yay!

I saw a book called "The no-cry sleep solution" (Elizabeth Pantley) at the library the other day & flipped through - it had suggestions for a gradual sleep training process and seemed quite reasonable & moderate. Might be worth checking out if you feel Ferber would be too hard on you.
