4 Nights and Counting (and praying) (and crossing my fingers)

Just for the record, Marin has slept the past 4 nights without once waking in the night and needing my "assistance" (usually her paci returned to it's rightful place... in her MOUTH!). It has been heavenly to say the very least. Top it off with the fact that Kaden hasn't been waking either and is learning to stay in his room until his radio alarm goes off, and you can see why I'm feeling a bit more human by the minute. I'm not sure what corner she turned or what is different, but I like it. It could be that the girl has 5 teeth (and only one more "on deck") and is finally ready to take a break with those for awhile (hey, a mom can hope, right?). It could be that she's eating 3 solid-food meals a day and snacking on whatever else she can persuade me (with her bulging eyes) to allow her to try (like bread, waffles, puffs, ect...). Who knows, who cares. For the moment at least I'm enjoying peaceful, uninterrupted sleep, what a novel idea!

I love the "who knows, who cares." So true.

My kids have always struggled with sleeping thru the night as well. It's rough. The big girls are great now, and girl #3 (who is 28mos.) is just now making that move. Pathetic, I know. Anyways, good luck:)
It was great seeing your comment - thanks!
Then I was able to click into your blog.
Hope to see you all soon.
