the little insomniac

Baby Xami woke up in the middle of the night and now it's 1:09AM and he won't go back to sleep.  He keeps making this cute noise with his lips smack together and producing some kind of a bilabial fricative.  I am keeping myself awake by looking at House MD extras, while Xami finds it in his system to fall back to sleep. I think this is one of my unlucky nights, now he has rolled over onto his stomach and is momentarily occupied with the sheet, now he's lying on his right side and nibbling on his mittens.  Oh Xami, dearest!

And it's been a while since I've written anything here... well, obviously, I've been too lazy to do anything else but look after my little giant!  It is incredibly and enjoyably exhausting. I have been exhausted many times before but more like the I-am-mentally-fatigue kind of way, not the achy-muscles-due-to-carrying-around-a-heavy-baby and-headaches-due-to-interrupted night sleep kind of way.  A very welcome change, I must say.

Xami is coughing like an old man, it is so funny! :-)
