oh happy, happy day!

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that this angel o' mine just experienced his first, full night's sleep.

I could be wrong because we put him downstairs, and we slept upstairs because he's harder to hear that way. And if you are thinking about judging me for banishing my babe to the basement for even half of a second -all I have to say is Karma will get you. It's fact.

It wasn't the first night that he down there, but usually I hear him when he wakes up. At 12. At 2. At 4. Last night I didn't. Not a peep. I woke up this morning to birds chirping and an alarm clock that said 5:30, and then I had to go stand by his door just to make sure he was still breathing. He was. And he slept for another 30 minutes. YAY!!

(Let's hope this Celebratory post doesn't jinx me, as every single happy that he slept post I have written in the past, has. Hmm. Do I dare hit publish!?)

Yay! I love when they sleep through the night! My oldest didn't until she was 3. The others I had to do the cry it out method which was heartbreaking but it worked! If putting him in the basement is the only way to get him to then you must do what you need to do!

Regardless of whether he does or doesn't keep sleeping all night, it's good to celebrate when he does. Congrats to being on the road to more sleep.

Yeah, good for the both of you. Maybe he just figured he might as well sleep because no one was going to get him up! Or maybe he's just able to eat enought to sleep all night. I hope it lasts.

Yay! Mine did too, must have been a great night for all momma's! Fingers crossed for another good nights sleep...the doctor told me yesterday he doesn't need to eat at night, he is plenty big enough(yeah right, try telling him that) maybe he was listening :)

Here's to many more nights of good sleep!

I'm a little confused on what this "sleep" is... every time I think I am getting some, someone needs help... hmm...
