So you know when people say, "I was up all night with the baby." We really were. Josiah (for some reason) didn't sleep last night-- pretty much at all. He wasn't fussy except when you tried to lay him down.
Finally, at 12:30AM we decided to plop him on the living room floor in front of the TV (I know... great parenting strategy). We put on "Baby Faith" (or as Nick and I call it, "Baby Crack") which is the "Christian" version of Baby Einstein. It actually embarrasses me how badly they ripped off Baby Einstein... anywhoo... it was $5 and it's the only movie like that we have on DVD-- AND (most importantly) it's on a LOOP, so it will automatically restart.
Nick spent the first shift (12:30AM-2:30AM) downstairs on the couch sleeping to Baby Faith, and I did the second shift (2:30AM-4:30AM.) At which point he fell asleep. So we just turned it off and left him there. :)
(In case you are wondering, the pink spot on the carpet is Silly Putty.)

Not exactly my proudest parenting moment, but hey, you gotta do what you gotta do.
