I have gotten almost 6 hours of sleep the past two nights, but it came at a price. I decided that it was time to let my rotten son realize that he can go to sleep on his own. Night before last, I did his bedtime routine (nursing, cereal, bath time, lavender lotion) and lovingly put him in his crib with his aquarium on the "ocean waves" setting. He proceeded to scream his head off for about 30 minutes before he finally gave up and passed out. Because he never cries, it is SO hard to sit and listen to him cry. I had to go put Peyton in the tub so I wasn't able to hear him scream over the water running. Every few minutes I would go check on him, but he was fine...just showing us his Rouse temper!
Last night, same routine but he only cried about 5 minutes. Think he might be getting the hang of it? Let's not jump the gun. Say a little prayer that my smart cookie will figure it out sooner than later.

Bless your heart! I hope it gets better soon!
I'm so sorry girl! I know that has to be hard. If Blake even looks and me and thinks about pouting I grab him up...AND HES NOT EVEN MINE!!!!
Good for you for not giving in.
Bless his heart! Caylee-Grace has such a loud cry that I don't think I could handle hearing that for 30 minutes. I hate to hear her cry anytime. But I just might have to do to that in a few months.
