Day 99 ~video~ 1st time sleeping all night in crib & ab exercises!

March 12, 2010

A few times last week, I put Mariella to sleep in her crib. I kept her on her snuggle nest, a baby sleeper with a slight incline and bolsters on either side so she stays put. She did just fine but I missed her so much I kept bring her back in my room to put her in her cradle. I kept thinking about her in her room all by herself, what if she needs me? What if I don’t hear her cry out for help? What if this? What if that?

enough of the what ifs! I am driving myself crazy! lol

So after she had a big girl moment and rolled over for the first time, I thought I should be a big girl too… get over it Angel, your baby WILL grow up! So I put her in her crib. Swaddled her with one arm out (she is getting ready to sleep with out being swaddled) kissed her on her forehead.

And she slept for hours… I don’t think she missed the incline of the snuggle nest. She did just fine! I am so proud of her! Sleeping so nicely in her bed! She must have had a feeling of new found freedom or something. She was working out her abs and pulling her leg up to the sky! It was so funny. Such a funny Wee Baby!
