Sleep (and other) stuff
We find Lucy alseep in the craziest positions. One night we found her like this: wedged up in a corner, one hand tucked in the side between the bumper and the mattress, with her little tush up in the air. I don't know how this could be at all comfortable, but I also don't question it- sleep is sleep. And anyway, come on- how cute is this?
Speaking of sleep, today is a big day. We moved Lucy's crib into the second bedroom this afternoon. Which means that she is sleeping in her own room for the first time tonight as I write this. Which means we're not sure what to expect from this change, but so far, so good! Fingers crossed!
ETA: Well, it was so-so. She fell asleep right away when I put her down at bedtime in the evening, so I secretly hoped we were good to go and that she might sleep through her midnight-ish feeding. Nope. Woke up as usual. I fed her and put her back down and this time- not so much. She would fall asleep for a little while then wake up crying. We tried letting her cry for a while and when that didn't work, we took turns going in there. Lots of crying. She finally fell asleep at around 3:00 am...at least that's our best guess. Both Brian and I fell asleep! Then she slept until (what's become) her normal wake-up time: 7:00am. Needless to say, we're all sleepy this morning. I put her down for her morning nap a little early and she went right to sleep. Hoping that she takes some good naps today and that we have a better night tonight!
And now for some administrative business: Comments are going to be done a little differently from now on, but don't worry- it's not complicated (it may even be easier than before). And for anyone who hasn't commented yet this may be a good time to try it out (hint, hint)!
