Naptime

Well, after 4 months i decided for his nap i would let Banks try to go down on his own...

Since Banks entered the world i have always carried him in my arms circling the living room and dining room until he fell asleep. Lately i have been thinking, durn, will he ever just be able to go to sleep on his own now that i have gotten him used to this (obviously someone didn't read Baby Wise or any other parenting book for that matter)? So today was the day, although i have been saying that for about the last 5 weeks!! Oh goodness gracious i never knew how hard it would be. It was just so sad...
I mean the shrieks, the fake tears, the coughing, the gagging, and the sheer volume of the crying was enough to wake the neighbors. But, I managed to soldier on and not give in. And what do you know about 15 minutes later he's out cold.



The worst part is all of that was to get him to sleep in the swing, lordy be, what's it going to be like when i try the crib??????

He goes down at night in the crib fine, he's just not having any of that during the day!
