LO's sleep just got awesome!

To catch up, the past two weeks or so have been miserable around here. We went from 1-2 wake-ups a night to 5-6-7...I was a walking zombie from being up basically every single hour all night. Putting him down for any type of sleep was a struggle. I could rock him to sleep but as soon as I moved he'd wake up screaming.

And then this weekend.

Friday night he didn't make a peep when I put him down for the night. He didn't go right to sleep, he rolled around in his crib and played with his giraffe for about half an hour, and then fell asleep (cuddling with it, I might add He only woke up twice!

Saturday night did the same thing before bed...rolled around and played with his giraffe for half an hour before falling asleep. And only woke up once, at 5am, for all of 20 minutes and fell right back asleep until 10:30. I was dancing around the house yesterday.

Then last night. Oh last night. Yet again it took him half an hour playing in his crib before he fell asleep. And once he did, he didn't wake up for 12 hours. At all. He STTN for real. I slept a whole 7 hours in a row--by far my longest stretch in over a year...5 hours is generally a luxury.

Dear sleep: please, please, please let this be the norm and not a one-off weekend.

AND his naps have gotten better. He still fussed for a few minutes before falling asleep, but no more than 5. And they were 1+ hours each all weekend, instead of the 30-40 minute cat naps.
