Small Victories

Evan has been sleeping in our room since he was born. He was in the pack n play. And just recently decided to start waking up in the night and cry til he got held. The plan was for him to share a room with Amzie, since we really need the office right now for J.Paul to be able to study. But I was so worried about putting them in there together, since it takes her so long to go to sleep and she is certainly not quiet about it all. Evan just likes it dark and quiet. Well one night we forgot the pack n play at the grandparents so we decided we might as well try to put Evan in his crib. We went ahead and put him down, then got Amzie ready and read her books and by the time she went in there he was asleep. (by the way a very thoughtful grandma brought the pack n play over that night "just in case"). But things have been going well since then. There are still nights that they want to stay up and make noise, but for the most part, they go to sleep! Who would have thought? I love these small victories!
