Party in my Crib


Grayson is beginning to sleep in his crib! I wish (darn 20/20 hindsight) that we had not spent so much time and emotional energy in trying to force him to sleep there over the last months as now that he is ready-boom he is sleeping.

Ryan started last Monday putting him in there for naps and was lucky to get 30 minutes of sleep for each nap which made for a rough couple of days. Then by Tuesday night he slept in there for 3 hours at bedtime...fast forward to Thursday when he slept for 6 hours in his crib! The new plan is to put him to sleep in his crib, and then when he wakes and eats he comes back to bed with us until morning. So far this is an awesome compromise...we get some alone time and we still get to wake up to the sounds of our sweet baby snuggling.

We have by no means mastered independent sleep but it is getting better and better by the day and hopefully within the next few weeks daytime naps will settle down and become routine. Our sweet baby is doing so very well- what a big boy!
