Sleepy Time

Last time we went to Dr. Jed he told us it was time. By that I mean time to put Nelle to sleep in her crib so that she would learn to sleep all the way through the night. We started this awful process last Friday. She cried for an hour Friday night and woke up a few times and cried but we just had to stick with it and leave her in there. Saturday night was a little better but still a sleepless night and by Sunday night she slept through the whole night. From 11pm to 6:30 am, so pretty much 7 and half hours. It was awesome!! Since then she is little miss sleeper. We get a full 8 hours of sleep pretty much every night! It was definitely hard the first few nights but so worth it! Were so proud of our little girl.

you guys are AWESOME!! we waited waaay too long to let gabe fall asleep on his own, and when he did it was awful letting him cry it out. but all it takes is a few days of feeling like the worst parents in the world while you listen to you baby cry, and then it's HEAVEN. so much better for everyone! it's also amazing what a full nights sleep can do for everyone! congrats to everyone on nelle sleeping through the night!!
