We have certainly been busy since we returned home from our vacation. So much so that I barely have the time or energy to write much at the moment. Most recently, we tried putting Nathan in him own room, in his own crib so that we could start having regular bed times and more adult time. The doc ok'd it and were eager to begin. The first night we put him down tired and let him cry it out. In 45 minutes he was asleep and woke once to eat and then another time at 7am. Wow! We felt maybe this would be it! Night #2 didn't go so well. Even though Nathan was clearly sooooo tired (falling asleep while bouncing himself on my knee - seriously, we've got proof) he fought it like crazy. After a rough evening of ups and downs, we let him cry, checking in of course every so often. After two hours I had it and rescued him. He feel asleep within minutes in my arms. I then proceeded to cry myself to sleep. :( Perhaps he is not yet ready. After last night, neither am I.
Today, Greg is coming for the weekend to be with Mom who had her surgery this week and hang out with us. Mom is doing fine, by the way. She had major back surgery which requires a lot of recovery time. Bu when I saw her in the hospital it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. She had her sunny and positive attitude in check as always. Mom will be back on her feet and chasing Nathan around in no time.
Off to get some coffee to get my through the next few hours until naptime. More updates soon.
