Sleep Sense: Night Three

Another great night!

Both boys were asleep by 7:30pm with nearly no fuss. Cavan cried for maybe a minute or two in his crib and Hunter went to his bed with no fight and no escape attempts.

Hunter woke up in the middle of the night to pee and then again at 4:30am and sometime around 5am. With a little coaxing he went back to sleep until quarter after six. Cavan let out a couple of cries between 4 and 6am, but again nothing that I even had to go into his room to check on.

Cavan is now understanding that when we say it is night-night time that he has to go into his crib. It has been me putting him in all this time, so last night when I said it was night-night time he ran away from me, climbed up into Matt's lap and did his best fake cry with a full on pout. Pretty cute.

Hunter has been bragging to anyone that we visit with that he is now a big boy and sleeps all by himself.

Hurray for sleep!

When you aren't getting sleep because your kids are up all night you tend to try to convince yourself that sleep is overrated....but once you start getting it, isn't it great?

You must be loving the sleep and the quiet time in the evenings. I was ALWAYS big on bed time - even when Josh was a baby he went to bed at 7 with the girls, then would just get up to eat. Even when we went camping or out anywhere. I was fanatical. It was the only way to get adult time.

I'm so happy this is working well. And the fact that Hunter is proud of his accomplishment bodes well. If he feels a sense of pride in what he's doing he's likely to stick with it. You must feel so good having a good sleep, like a new woman.
