For the last four nights, Baby Silas has had a meal around 9PM and then not eaten again until 7-8AM. This, my friends and family, qualifies him as having Slept Through the Night. Which I think we all know also qualifies him for Being Even More Awesome Than He Already Was.

We learned with Luke (almost two years ago!) that there is the possibility of getting a good, expectation-setting week or two or three out of this kind of wonderful behavior -- right before ending up with a week or two of middle of the night madness that makes you think that your world is ending. BUT, at least it won't take us by surpise if it goes down that way again.

Other brief news: Silas had his 4th month check-up on Monday. There it was confirmed that if you had 100 live babies all hanging out in a room, only nine of those babies would be any heavier or taller than Silas. Unfortunately, this confirmation was not carried out using 100 live babies -- that would have been a pretty amazing logistical set-up for ol' Dr. Dixon. It's all a percentage game with these guys.
