Progress!

Helen is making great progress in getting through the night. Three nights ago, she awoke a couple of times and fussed but was able to go back to sleep. Two nights ago, she had a hard time settling down to go to bed but once down, she stayed there. Last night, she went down like a rock at 7:30, woke up a few times early on and babbled but did not melt down. When Stew went in to check on her this morning at 7:00, she was still out. Such good news for all three of us. You can see it all over her face, that's she's started to "catch-up" on her sleep. It does our hearts good to hear her waking up babbling instead of crying - knowing that she's getting more familiar with her crib, her room, and us - that when she wakes up, she knows where she is and feels safe and happy. We've been leaving a nightlight on in her room and that seems to have helped tremendously.

Will get Stew on loading new photos at home, so stay tuned!
