Got Sleep?

Because I don't. and I'm looking for it. We(meaning mostly me) are working on keeping Wyatt in his bed. He goes to sleep most nights ok in his bed but staying in his bed is a whole other story. Oy! We are a working on being consistent with him and are not letting him in our bed at all-no matter how tired we are! So Operation SLeep has been underway for three days. Here is the status report:

Night one-pure hell. He was up for two hours between 2-4am. Everytime we put him in his bed, he was out within seconds. It was exhausting.

Night two- A bit better, he still got up and cried. But it took less time to get him settled down. I did stay a bit longer in his room each time though. It just worked better for him.

Night three- Going to bed was tough. He ended up out in the living room and fell asleep on the couch. But he stayed in his bed till 540am! Troy told him he could come in when it started to get light outside. Boy, Wyatt took it to heart because he was in our room when the sky was starting to lighten.

So tonite, we shall move forward with Operation Sleep.
