Huge news today!
At 7:15 I woke up confused, put on my robe and walked in to Tucker’s room. 7:16 I placed my hand on Tucker’s back, gave him a gentle shake and told him it’s time to wake up and go to school. This morning, for the first time ever, I woke up my son.
Usually Tucker wakes at 12-1ish, 4-5am and again at 7am when he’s up for good. Not only did he sleep past the 7am mark but he completely skipped the 4-5am wake-up.
I felt his head to see if he had a temperature, but he felt normal. Please God, let him do it again tomorrow.
In the meantime, here’s some pics from our mother/son weekend in Seattle that also happened to be during the Women’s Flat Track Derby Association Board of Directors conference in Seattle.


Note the sweet roller derby action post-its in the background and I think Crackerjack slurping down some coffee or beer/boxed wine (pretty much the only options).

Aside from stealing everyone’s Sharpie’s, Tucker was good baby relief from the intense roller derby talk when he wasn’t crying or slamming his head in to some precariously balanced object.
