Not bad, baby!

Lest you think my child does nothing but scream, here's an update--he sleeps too!! Eight hours!! Yes, for two nights in a row, he's been sleeping for eight hours, from 11:00 to 7:00. Hallelujah! This could be because he spends the previous 3 or 4 hours raging. Not crying. Raging. Each night I go to sleep in tears, nerves ripped apart and I wake up...rested. Incredible. We've given  him two doses of probiotics so far, and we'll see if it helps at all. 
Brice remains very interested in this new intruder, though still not at all sure what to do with him. The past weekend he tried to pick him up. Squatted down and shoved his little paws underneath him and when that didn't work, he grabbed his arm and pulled him (he was being closely supervised whilst doing this, in case you're cursing my parenting skills). He also likes to try and shove the pacifier in his mouth when he's crying. It's sort of sweet. I look forward to the day when they can actually interact and play.

Go Harry! Glad to hear that you are able to get at least a little bit rested, though I know what you really need is a month at a spa. I'm proud of you and praying for you!
