Our boys have been staying up up up in recent months. Bedtime has become chaotic and unfun - at least for the grownups in this house.
So I'm on a crusade to get everyone to sleep earlier, in secure, warm and loving circumstances.
Night One: It took the baby 45 minutes to get to sleep next to me in the darker than usual room with the door shut. It took the older boy 1 hr and 45!!! I was extremely patient and committed!
Night Two: Baby was a nightmare. (But he had had a day nap). But this time the older boy only took 50 minutes to get to sleep. His eyes closed about 8.45 - approximately two hours earlier than he has been dozing off in recent months.
We'll see what happens tomorrow!
Wow. That sounds hard but congratulations on two days of "The Great Bedtime Shakedown".
