Light Off Please
So I have always had a hard time with Ade and sleeping. There was rarely a time when she went to sleep without crying first and more rare was her sleeping through the night. When we put her into a toddler bed December 2011 she would never sleep in it and spent most nights sleeping on the floor with her face pressed up to the crack underneath her door. I would have to sneak in and put her in bed once she was out. I started leaving the light on in her room (she always had a night light btw) around February 2012 and developed a solid sleep schedule. We wake up at 8am every day no matter what, nap is at 10am, no sleeping past 1pm bed time 11pm. I have tried every other time under the sun, but this is what works for our family. I would love to wake up at 8am her nap an hour around noon and go to bed at 7pm, but it doesn't work. We have been going strong on this sleep schedule for almost 5 months now and it has made life so much easier. So guess what happened tonight? After we brushed our teeth and read Ade a bed time story we were walking out of her bedroom and she said "momma dadda light off please" =-0 WHOA haha we were like "uh okay"and turned the light off. I set her up with her cloud b lady bug that displays stars on the ceiling and closed the door and then guess what... she didn't cry and fell right to sleep. It was amazing =)
