We are entering a new phase in our parent-child relationship -- sleep training. You have always slept in our bed with us, but unfortunately this has meant endless feeding and harassing of your poor mommy. We've decided that this system isn't helping anyone so no more milk at night. Actually, you've handled it quite well. I expected endless howling and wailing, but that only seems to happen for an hour or so. After that you seem to be sleeping ok. I'm not sure why we didn't do this sooner!
In other areas, you're doing great. You are walking independently much more frequently. Twice now you've just taken off on me at the park. Its so cute. You even crawled some the other day. You're little personality is forming and you are starting to "tease" us a little. We'll tell you not to put something in your mouth and you will go ahead and act like you're going to do it anyway -- and then you flash us your cute little smile. It is aggravating and adorable all at the same time.
We went swimming on Easter down in Oak Creek Canyon. The water was so cold, but you just went charging in over and over! Then you wanted us to let you walk on a fallen log without help! You are clingy and independent all at the same time.
Well I'd better go get some stuff done before my long night of comforting you. Sleep tight my angel.
Mommy
