Sleep! Glorious Sleep!

I thought sleeping through the night was just a myth that parents told parents-to-be to not frighten them and give them something to reach for during the first few months. Kieran seems to be bucking the trend (not that I expect this to last).

Last night he went to sleep at 8:30 pm. This morning he woke up at 7 am. He fussed a bit around 1 am but he didn't get into "meltdown" mode so we let him be and he found his way back to sleep. He's done this once or twice before. It's really nice to sleep through the night (even if we do wake up on occasion just to check and be sure he's breathing). Once he gets up he gets changed, fed and then goes back to sleep for a little while.

I'm on Kieran duty this morning while Ken goes to have his character interview. For those that don't know the whole "entry into the Bar" process - in addition to taking a ridiculously rigorous test, you must also prove to the state Bar Association that you are a nice person and worthy of becoming a lawyer. So, you have people you know answer questions about you and you must also meet with someone on the review committee so they can take stock of you in person.

I know he'll do fantastic - he's so affable. Ken, of course, is nervous. It is what he's been working for these past 3 years. He'll be back home in a few hours and I'll try to edit this post with info on his interview then.

Well - he got back and it went well. He said it was very nerve-wracking to sit there and know that someone was judging his character based on his answers. His interviewer told him that he should not have any issues from this end and he did well. 2 more weeks until we find out pass/fail.
