~ And So He Sleeps ~

This calls for a drum roll please....... brrrbrrrbrrrppp
(excuse my online interpretation of a drum roll!).........

TUCK NOW SLEEPS THROUGH THE NIGHT!!!!

"Amen!" - "Hallelujah!" - "Praise the Lord!"
I know, can you believe it? That is exactly what I was thinking!

My sweet baby boy, who is less than 3 months old, has now slept through the night 3 nights straight! And when I say slept through the night I mean, we put him down to bed at 9:00 pm and he did not wake till close to 7:00 am.

No more sleepless nights, warming bottles at 1 - 4 - and 7 o'clock! No more falling asleep on the couch with a bottle under your chin and a baby in your lap! We have paid our dues!
This is the day every new parent awaits, and Loren and I are finally here!

"What's the secret?" you ask?!?!
RICE CEREAL! - I honestly believe it is not a coincidence that 3 nights ago Tuck slept through the night AND had rice cereal... a first time for both.

Now 3 nights running... Tuck has had rice cereal about an hour before his bedtime bottle. After we lay him down in bed, he has peacefully snoozed till morning!
It's like a dream. I just hope and pray I have not jinxed myself and this sleeping through the night continues!

But for now, I will rejoice in the moment and catch up on 3 months of interrupted sleep!

Look at my baby... so peacefully perfect.



Thank you for being such a good boy Tucker! Mommy loves you. :)

  4. This is because boys are easier then girls, lol
    Landon was doing the same thing at 2 months (yes I'm bragging, sorry!) I am so HAPPY that Tucker is off to a much better start then Little Miss G was!!

  5. Agreed! Second babies are a breeze compared to the first! I don't know if they are just better or I just know more and am less nervous! Whatever the combo.... I'll take it! My precious little Tuck is such a good boy! I can't wait for you to see how easy "Lola" will be!
