Thankfully, our bedtime spats were short lived, but I tell ya...Phew! It sure was rough there for a while. Being a Mama is difficult sometimes. Last night was heavenly. I put them to bed, they went down without a fight and slept til 10am this morning! I hate it when my babies cry and wish I could fix it every time, but there really is something to leaving them alone to let them cry it out. They've learned that after I say goodnight, they won't see me again til morning and for that, I'm so thankful. Uninterrupted sleep is best for all of us!
They're in pullups during the day, diapers at night. We're in the same place potty-wise. We have plenty of days with wet pants, but they're doing much better at recognizing when they have to go #2 and telling me. They jabber to one another all the time & are starting to form sentences..."Sissy, where are you?", "there you are!", "all better", "I wanna hold you". They're also starting to sing along with us to songs in the car! It's adorable!
Another new development is rapidly approaching. We will probably be in big girl beds soon. They often nap at Nana's in pack'n plays and they've been climbing back & forth from one to the other.
Rather than putting them in toddler beds, Ian and I will be assembling the 30+ year old bunk bed he (all the Mader kids) slept in as a child. It's an incredibly fun bed and SO cool that his daughters will be sleeping in it now! We're probably still a few months out, but we're thinking about putting it together for their birthday in April. Pretty exciting!
