Bedtime...AHHHH!!!

Bedtime has been the biggest struggle we have recently had with Caroline. When she was a baby (until we moved her out of the crib) she was a GREAT sleeper, but ever since she had the freedom to get up out of her bed, she has NO desire to go to sleep or sleep through the night! EVERY night we have a huge battle (usually lasts more than an hour) to just get her in her bed, and lots of times it ends in me just buckling and staying in there with her. Then, she usually wakes up in the middle of the night and I just put her in our bed instead of fighting her in the middle of the night.

The past week, though, I think we have turned a corner! She's done a really good job of going to bed since Sunday night and she's slept in her bed all night all week. In fact, I've had to wake her up each morning (which isn't easy...she is SOOOOOO not a morning person, much like her mommy). I've found her in a strange position every morning, but if that is what is going to make her sleep ok, then so be it!!! Last night she INSISTED on going to sleep with her feet on her pillow and her head at the end of the bed on her blankets and she DIDN'T want covers!
