Sleep training: day 2

Last night we put Reagan to bed around 6pm. She screamed; I went to her after 20 minutes to make sure she did not need a diaper change; she did not so I attemped to sooth her without picking her up (no luck) and then left. Total crying time: 1hr 30minutes. She woke up after only an hour and a half of sleep. I went to her, nursed her, changed her and put her back down. She cried for only a few minutes and fell asleep. She only got up one more time to nurse and slept until 7:30am. Not bad (besided the hour and a half of crying of course; how our hearts ached)!

Yesterday she napped in her crib all day. Her naps were not great but not terrible and it makes sense that it will take some getting use to before she is back to her super napping. She only cried for a few minutes each time she was put down for a nap in her crib and the last nap she did not cry at all!

This morning she went down for her first nap about 9:30 and is still down at 1230! She barley resisted being put down in her crib; I am so happy how quickly she is taking to the crib. Craig said that she did wake up after being down for only about 30 minutes and cried very weakly (more fussing than crying) for about 30 minutes. She fell back to sleep without intervention.

Here is Katya in her darling Halloween costum from Grandma and Baba Faulkner. She is the cutest Tinker Bell ever!
