Making Progress

so i have a confession to make. i'm not sure if i have already mentioned this, but since we brought Bryson home we have let him sleep in the bed with us at night. i mean look at his precious little face (he was 5 days old when this picture was taken). how could you not want him sleeping next to you every night!!


well this week i have finally let loose of the cord. since monday night he has been sleeping in his pack n' play. he has done a great job with a little help from the miracle blanket (thanks stephanie)!
this little jewel has been my saving grace these last few nights. clay hates it and calls it Bryson's straight jacket..ha!! but this blanket really works. he has been sleeping 4-5 hours each night, just like when he was in the bed with us. there's been a few nights that he has busted out with his legs :) but honestly i think this really comforts him at night and this would have to be one of my recommendations for first time mommies!!


so since i'm going back to work in less than 3 weeks i also thought i would try and start letting Bryson take one nap a day in his room. he's been doing great with this too:) yesterday was our first attempt and he lasted about 45 minutes.


today was ALOT better! he was able to sleep in his big boy bed for 1 1/2 hours. clay and i only had to go in there once each to put his paci back in his mouth.

doesn't he look just adorable in his little romper? this was one of the many outfits that my cousin heather gave to us.

better get in the bed. i'll get about 2 or 3 hours before the little one wakes up.
