Proud Mommy!!!

Ok, so I am clearly obsessed with sleeping, but it seems to be paying off. Last night, Miles slept from 8 - 4 am. At 4 we fed him and he went back to sleep easily. He woke up around 6:30 and I listened to him coo in his crib for about 30 - 45 minutes and then he fell asleep again. We all woke up around 8 this morning. Pretty good night as far as nights go.

This morning's nap, I put him down with the normal routine. He "chatted" to his music for the 5 minutes that it plays, and then made whiny / car revving noises for about 15 minutes. I picked him up and explained that it was sleeping time and that nothing was happening in the house while he was asleep so wouldn't miss anything. After that and a couple more whiny sounds, he fell asleep. (About 20 minutes total, no wailing, and only 1 pick up!!)

After 45 minutes - you literally can set your clock to it - he woke with a cry. I then heard the sound of him sucking his hand over the monitor, and then he went back to sleep. This is the first nap since our regimented training began that he has slept more than 45 minutes!! I am so proud of our little man - he is getting this sleeping skill down great!!
