Lily's V-day outfit from Mimi & Pappy.
I finally decided to be a "good mommy" and make Lily sleep all night in her crib. She usually starts out in her crib and then wakes up some time around 3 or 4 AM and I would always put her in bed with me. I love sleeping with her, but I know that neither one of us gets a good night sleep and she needs to learn how to put herself back to sleep. I've already started it for naps and she usually only cries for a few minutes, if she cries, but I have always given in at night time. So, Wednesday night she woke up at 3:00, 4:00 and 4:20 AM. I let her cry for a few minutes and then went in and patted her on her back. This seemed to work pretty well. Last night she only woke up at 4 AM! GO LILY! The key to it is being consistent, so I hope I can keep myself from giving in to her cries in the middle of the night!
