Gavin Sleeps Through The Night For First Time — Or Did He?
Gavin slept through the night for the first time last night. It was a shock because Aiden began to sleep through the night at fifteen weeks old, so Chrissy and I were crossing our fingers that Gavin would do the same. At fourteen weeks, Gavin was still waking up at 2 AM and 5 AM every night, so we weren’t holding out much hope for a big change in a single week. But we got lucky!
Or so we thought… When daylight savings time kicked in on Saturday night, all of our clocks automatically fell back one hour. So Gavin woke up at four? Well, no. Our bedroom clock went completely wonky and reset itself four hours ahead. Chrissy woke me up for work at 2 AM, thinking that it was in fact 6 AM. We were so happy to see that both kids were still asleep!
Chrissy didn’t realize the error until we turned on the TV for the weather forecast, and it said that it was 3 AM! I was just about to drive to work, assuming that it was still dark outside because of the time change, but instead went back to bed. When we crawled out of bed for the real 6 AM, Gavin was just waking up (and hungry!). We’ll have to see if this was just a fluke!

Dude, didn’t your clocks screw you up earlier this year and send you off to work late?
Time to get new timepieces my friend…

This was a new clock. We’ve had it less than a year, I think. I believe that it set itself to Greenwich Mean Time when Daylight Savings kicked in. Just needed to adjust the time zone to get it back on track. But still, we shouldn’t have to do that on a clock that can set itself!
