So. . .since we switched completely to bottle feedings, I realized that Tyler and I could share the responsiblilty of getting up to feed Zoey in the wee hours of the morning. Last night before we went to bed, I made sure that Tyler knew he would get a swift kick on the shins if he didn't wake up at 3 am to feed her. Guess what the little stinker (Zoey, not Tyler) did? SHE SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT!!! Nine and a half hours of uninterrupted sleep for all of us. And although I am thrilled that she slept that long, woke up happy, and ate well, I am a little bit disappointed that Tyler was not able to experience what I have been doing for the last 12 weeks--every night! So I am creating a new house rule:
It is your turn to feed the baby in the middle of the night until she actually wakes and needs to be fed!

You can't just make a new rule and expect that it is accepted by the house. I still have my vote!
As it turned out, I accepted Judy's new rule in exchange for her changing one poopy diaper.
