Night # 4

Elijah slept through the night last night! It’s amazing and I hope that it will continue. It’s funny how when you want so much for something to happen and when it actually does, it’s hard to believe that it really did! Well, we were at bible study last night and while we were out, about 3 hours, Elijah was awake the whole time. So when we got home and I laid him down to sleep he cried on and off for about 45 minutes. He usually will cry or fuss no longer than 15 minutes if I put him to bed before he gets too tired. So, I think that he was just way overly tired and couldn’t go to sleep on his own, so finally at about 10:20pm I went and nursed him and then he fell asleep. He then slept from 10:30pm-7am, 8 ½ hours! I'm very happy!

Hey Candice! How are you and your family? How is Elijah sleeping now? I finally tried "crying it out" with Nolan, and it has drastically improved his sleeping habits (that, and taking away his pacifier). I have been writing about it on my blog.
