My husband had to go into work early this morning to make changes to a firewall (computer stuff)...early as in leaving our house around 3:30 a.m. I happened to be up feeding David a bottle when my husband got ready. I had made some blueberry muffins for him to take in to work to share with the coworkers that would be assisting him as well as picked up some orange juice.
Once he took off, and I got David settled, I crawled back into bed. I find it always more difficult for me to fall back to sleep when my husband is gone. I end up hearing every little noise on top of having an empty bed to sleep in. I know part of this is liking the security of having my husband at home, and the other part is because we have little kids, and I am on extra alert when I am the only one home at night. It didn't help that the neighbors a couple doors down started talking loudly with their dog barking, and I had to get up and close the windows to block out the noise.
I am glad my husband only has to do these early hours once every couple months or so. The poor guy is going to be exhausted because the lack of sleep from having a newborn in the house will only compound his exhaustion. I am sure he will be taking a nap when the older two boys go down today.
