Another Sleep Update

Isn't he a cutie?

Wyatt is in his bed! WOOHOO! So here is what we did to perservere over this parenting beast.


We ignored him.


When he came into our room, we acted like he wasn't there.


The first night he whispered "Mommy" over and over again. A few times I had to stifle a laugh because he was so persistent! And he poked me. A lot. I just turned over.


Troy eventually couldn't handle it any longer and took him back to his bed. And talked to him. That just amped Wyatt up. But I let Dad deal and he finally came back to bed and Wyatt stayed in his till the sun peeked over the horizon.





Eventually Troy realized that by giving him ANY attention gave Wyatt what he wanted. Once he stopped responding to him, Wyatt stopped waking us up. Yeah, some mornings I'd find him on our floor but he made due without waking us. Now he's in his bed every night.





Oh and I close his door. We never have done this with the girls but I think he tunes himself to our noises so I try to muffle them as best as possible. Closing the door is working.





Now it's time to work on Sophie.
