Actually, we're trying to wean ourselves off of the (audio) baby monitor entirely. Damn thing drags us out of our sleep (or whatever) and into his room with every whimper. Things run much more smoothly when the monitor is off - Trepidation Tot puts himself back to sleep just fine, and God knows the apartment isn't big enough that one can just hide from the sound of a determinedly crying infant. Unfortunately, Trepidation Dad has a new toy, a humidifier, in the bedroom, a nice noisy one because he likes background noise when he sleeps, and with that thing on we can't hear a damn thing. (Actually, I really should get my ears checked, because I truly can't hear a damn thing with that sort of background noise. Different complaint.) Anyhow, since he got it we've had to put the monitor back on "just in case," and, thanks to our new awareness of every toss and groan, Trepidation Tot is waking up routinely 2-3 times every night again, expecting bottles and hugs. Damn it! I'm trying to solve this by making Trepidation Dad get up to deal with all night time crying (hoping he'll decide he loves his sleep more than his humidifier), but to no avail.

In other news, along with just about everyone else on this board, the Sandwiches are expecting another baby. This will be our third.
