A major minor success

Yesterday Lydia was able to fall asleep in her crib for naps and not by being held. She still needed some coaxing and her little turtle sea aquarium crib toy which plays music. But I consider that a step in the right direction. So last night we tried to continue the trend by putting her in her crib when she's tired and try to get her to sleep in there. We aren't up to the crying it out stage yet... maybe over the weekend when we can both afford to be up a lot more. Polly spent a lot of the night up with her last night keeping her calm and in and out of sleep. We're hoping that she gets the hang of this sooner rather than later. Apparently after 3 months old it is a lot harder to get them to sleep on their own, so it's better to start right from the beginning.

We know she's getting enough sleep to get energy to eat, she's now 9 pounds and 7 ounces! She's getting to be a tiny chubby baby!
