If there is any one thing in this world I was born to do, it's being a momma.

Sleep....At Last

My daughter finally slept through the ENTIRE night.  About 7pm to 7am, a full twelve hours maybe plus some change.  She has pretty much slept through the night the last four nights.

Friday the 9th was the first night. Then Saturday night she slept until 5:50am and came into bed with us for the last hour.  Sunday night she slept through the entire night again.  Monday night she slept until 5:40am, came into bed with us, and tried to go back to sleep but never did.  She woke up at about 11pm but just cried a tiny bit and put herself back to sleep.  I'm hoping she keeps this pattern for awhile because it feels so good to finally get sleep in more than one or two hour time chunks.  I'm still tired, obviously, but much more rested than before.

It is a great feeling being able to be so proud of her for taking a new step, and a big one at that.  I think she sleeps better on her own as well because she has had more energy in the morning.  She definitely naps better with me than on her own in her crib, but at night she sleeps better in her crib.  A well-rested mom and baby is a very good thing :)
