Sleeping, Sleeping Little Boy

After two weeks of mostly successful naps in his new bed, we decided to test the all night waters last night to see how it went. And we were pleasantly surprised! D stayed in bed almost all night, with one small wake-up around 3:45 AM, though he went right back to bed when I went in and tucked him back in. And he even slept past 6 AM, which is rare. Instead of closing the door, as we do during naps, we left it open and gated his door, so when he did get up, he could at least see our room. I didn't get much sleep because I was so anxious about the new arrangement, but as usual, our son proved that my anxiety was unwarranted. Fluke? Who knows, but we will try again tonight and see how it goes!

SO sweet!Here's hoping he's just ready. The baby gate thing worked really well for us - they felt like they had access to us but were safe in thier rooms. Good job big boy D!!
