Murphy's Law

Poor Jon.

He has a MAJOR presentation for work today. A new tie, clean suit...presentation. He is presenting his portion of the capital budget to the ABC big-wigs and he's been preparing for this for months.

Together we decided that last night would be my last middle-of-the-night feed for Kate. Though she really doesn't need the feed anymore, we've continued it through last night so that we could avoid the chance of her waking up hungry in the middle of the night and mommy isn't there. It was especially important for last night because of Jon's big day today. He is off the rest of the week, so if she wakes up hungry, there will be a bottle for her and he won't have to go to work tired. Does that make sense?

ANYWAY...I purposely didn't change her diaper before the feed last night because she usually cries when I do so I didn't want Jon to wake up. She was such an angel during her feed. She didn't even wake. It was a true dream feed. She snuggled close and nursed well, and I put her back to bed without her making a peep.

Until apparently 2:30.

Then she woke, not sure why...and Jon was up with her for the rest of the night.

Soooo, he now has to present his budget on very little sleep (which we tried SO hard to avoid) and attend a dinner tonight. Poor baby. If only this budget presentation would have been next week...
