Sleep and Schedules

We need sleep at our house. The books say that Zechariah needs 16-20 hours of sleep in a 24 hour period at this age and we are lucky if we can get him to sleep for 9-13.5 hours per 24 hour period (usually it's closer to the 9 hour end that we get and most of it takes place at night thankfully). At his 2 month appointment his doctor says that we need to focus on getting him on a eating/sleeping schedule and he eats every 1-2 hours (occassionally he can go 3-4) when he is awake which is most of the time but the sleeping is a completely different issue.

"Adventure Is Out There"

We have had several adventures since the last post, but no pictures to share.
Over the 4th of July weekend Zechariah attended his second wedding and went to a Bed & Breakfast to help us celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary (a little bit early), both in Indianola, Iowa.
Yesterday, July 8th, Zechariah actually went into the Moby without screaming and even took a 20-30 minute nap (the length of most of his day time naps). We also went out for an evening walk to return some of the dishes to friends who brought us a meal. Zechariah loved the walk! (and he even took another short nap).
Today we took Zechariah to the library.
(We didn't think of pictures until after the adventure was over, hopefully we will remember next time.)
