Sleep Training Update!!

Ok so updates on nights 3-6! Hahaha I am slow! Andrew has been doing amazing..by night 5 he was sleeping through the night..but on night 6 he woke up at 5 am. We had Deanna and her son sleeping over so of course i rushed in and and gave him a bottle, out of the crib though and put him back down completely awake so he could go to sleep on his own. We will see how he will do tonight. It is now 8 pm and he just went down. We were gone all day so he got basically no nap and by the time we got home I had to quickly but patiently and calmy get him bathed and stick to somewhat of his schedule so he knew it was time to sleep for a long time. Watch he will sleep in until like 10..oh Ang wishes but church is at 9 am which means i have to get him up by 8 am..so no hope there. Oh well. I really love this book and this program that has helped me train him. I am also proud of us for sticking to it!!! Franco and I are going out of town in a week or so and my sister Tami is taking Andrew for a few days so I hope to really have this schedule thing worked out for her sake!

For all of you out there that think it is impossible..trust me..it is not. The first two days were the hardest but now its just part of our life!!! Love it. And...i have much more energy now. Which makes home a happier place. :)

Ahh that is so great! I FEEEEEL for you.....I hope he really gets the hang of it and permanently sticks to it, Gavin still isn't consistent...and he's taking horrible naps, if any...but my body is used to not getting consistent sleep.I'm sure by the time he perfects the sleeping I will be pregnant again...ahhh...
