sweet sleep - an update on our sleep training

ah, sweet sleep!! miles has done wonderfully the past week. it is like he is a different baby. he eats 4-6oz at a time, when before it was a miracle to get him to take 3. he is happy and doesn't have to be held all.the.time. he is even eating his table foods better, though he isn't a huge fan of purees - he wants the good stuff - the puffs and cheerios!

while there is still some crying before bedtime and naps, it has been drastically reduced and sometimes there is none! he now goes down awake for both bedtime and naps, so that makes it a lot easier, especially daytime naps when it is just me with the two boys. we've even kept up a pretty good schedule of an early morning nap and then a mid-afternoon nap. it took a few tries before i figured out the right times, but i think we are almost there.

i am so thankful that is worked for us and that we now have a much more rested house. and a much happier mom.
