Catch up


Well as you can see LT was Tigger for Halloween this year. Who knows what he will be next year. Doesn't he make a cute Tigger?

Eating and sleeping...Our doctor has us using the method from the book On Being Baby Wise. So for the past 5 weeks I have been feeding LT every 3 hours during the day. Keeping him up when I can then putting him to bed and when I can waking him up at the 3 hour mark. This is supposed to lead LT to sleeping all night. Well, I have been doing this with no success then this weekend LT becomes very fussy and stayed fussy through last night. I am talking if he was awake he was screaming and he would even cry in his sleep at times.

So last night he finally cries himself to sleep in my arms at midnight I put him to bed in his crib and I go to sleep on the couch since it is closer and I will be more likely to hear him and wake up to take care of him...but I never did hear him...he didn't wake up until 5:15! He slept all night! So I fed him a bottle and he went right back to sleep and woke up at 8:00 for his next bottle. He was up then till 10:30 then fell asleep but work up at 11:00 for his next bottle.

We won't know for sure if he is now sleeping through the nights or this was a fluke since he hadn't been sleeping well due to the fussiness. But I will keep my fingers crossed that tonight I get a repeat of last night!
