Good:
1. My parents and sister visited this weekend. We had a really nice visit. They really enjoyed meeting Keegan and my parents look forward to their visit in July. My mom was nice enough to host us for dinner on Saturday night and Sunday afternoon we went to the Avenues.
2. What made the visit even more enjoyable was that Keegan is now sleeping better. This week we put him in his crib. A couple times he slept 5 and 6 hours in a row. Though he hasn’t hit that every night he seems to now skip the mid-night feeding. We can put him down around 10:30 – 11:00PM and he seems to make it until 3:00AM. This extra hour may not seem like a lot but it really helps.
3. We finally figured out the problem with the retimer that goes on the Switch. The customer gave me a call around 7:00PM and told me to leave work – but told me to take the datasheet home with me. He wanted me to re-read it before I went bed and then re-analyze the data when I got to work the next day. That was very good advice - he was right we were overlooking something very obvious. That little bit of perspective paid off.
Bad:
1. I still feel like I’ve been run over by a truck when I help out with the night shift on the weekend. I don’t know how Jen manages because she still has to pump. She’s still working on getting on the same schedule as Keegan. Even though he was sleeping longer Jen still has to get up and pump.
2. It was tough for Jen to allow Keegan to sleep in his own room. It definitely was the right call. He likes it some much better – I think he was cramped in the bassinet. Deb was right about borrowing the bassinet – now where do we put it?
3. We are not meeting the startup requirement for the file server. We were told by management to feel out the customer. They weren’t real excited and told us to get back to work.
