Keeping Perspective

Dear Diary,

Quick update here just to say that we did the crib thing on Friday night, and Edwin stood up in it and cried for three hours, never once getting close to going to sleep. THREE HOURS. I gave up, obviously. I know, I know, I should have stuck it out, am bad parent, blah blah blah. But Saturday he developed a cold and had a fever last night so I knew there was no way any crib sleeping was going on. So, putting it off another week...

I have to remember that there are many worse problems my baby could have than not sleeping in his crib. It feels like such a big deal to me but really, I should count my blessings. Because look! He is healthy and cute.


Love,
Fluffy

don't beat yourself up about sleeping. it happens eventually for all little kids, EVEN TWINS! have hope. he's still really little. wouldn't you want to sleep with you and hubby if you were him, too?
