this is how you know the time needs to change

so this morning somewhere between 2 and 3 in the morning, Tripp woke up and was crying a little bit, enough to wake Nelson and me up, but not enough to warrant us to get up or anything. he was back to sleep after about a minute. So I was back to sleep as well. Then he got up again, this time he was really crying. i was confused as to why he was crying so much. i went in there, rubbed his back a little bit, tried to calm him down, and then i went back into our bed. i waited a few minutes, he was still really crying. so i went back in his room, smelled a poopy diaper, changed it, put him back down. Tripp was still crying. then i thought, maybe he is cold so I put on a blanket. still crying. so i rubbed his back some more, and left the room. I was so confused about why he was not calming down. it was still dark outside, so i figured it had to be about 3 in the morning. so i thought, i will just go sit in the living room and check all my automatically sent emails from amazon, walgreens, lands end (hey- free shipping), kohls (by the way, did you know there is a sale this week??), shutterfly, etc., when i got on the computer i noticed the time- 6:55 a.m.!! Tripp usually is up between 6:30 and 6:45 (and sometimes as early as 6:15) so this was pretty late for him. but here i was thinking it was like 3 in the morning because it was still so dark outside, so i had just been telling him to go back to sleep when really he was hungry and ready to start the day!!! poor little guy! so i quickly checked two more clocks just to make sure my computer wasn't messed up (they all said 6:55) and ran into his room to get him up and make amends. I fed him and he was a happy camper again. i am looking forward to the time change this weekend so i can have a little help from mother nature in telling the time in my sleepy state! and while i meant to take a happy picture of him today, i forgot so here is one from yesterday!
