Wow...so this is a huge thing for Matt and I. This past week we have been putting Autumn down in her crib at night and let her put her self to sleep. (she has slept with us in our bed her whole 9 months of life.) (which I have LOVED...but ...when she wakes up 5 times a night and wants to nurse... no way ...not anymore..Especially when she wouldn't even nurse...just suckle. killing me here.)
Well.. Autumn only cried for 20 minuets for the first two nights and those two nights she woke up once and went right back to bed after some reassurance. It has been wonderful for me. Talk about feeling some deep sleep and rejuvenation. **BIG SMILES with a BIG SIGH** I just should have done it earlier. Ohh..I already feel at ease with bringing the the next child into this world knowing I will get sleep. (not pregnant)
So last night I slept through the whole night....ohhhh....it was heavenly. Though, I was excited to hear my little babies voice at 5 something this morning. Went and grabbed her and snuggled with her until Matt and I got out of bed at 7:30 and she was still asleep till about 8. Pretty crazy things are happening around here.
Autumn is a pretty funny baby. I'm thinking when I am trying to change her diaper and I cant hold her still and so I put her arms under my legs and she starts to shake her head and kick her legs as far in the air as she can.
Autumn also just learned how to close her fist when waving. just yesterday she started and suprised me. She also likes to stick her tounge out and move it side to side.
I just have to say it once more. Autumn is so close to walking maybe 2 weeks tops. Her Daddy loves to practice with her.
