Sleeplessness

Jacob has not been sleeping well lately. And therefore, none of us have been sleeping well. For weeks he has been congested, and wakes himself up coughing. He's also been clingy — he wants to sleep on us, rather than in his crib. Last night, it took me two hours to get him to fall asleep, singing and rocking him, and then he awoke again as soon as we got in bed. 4:30 A.M. was the first time we were all asleep at once. This photo was taken in the dark with a long 3-second exposure.
