Jennifer, I hope we can establish a lasting bedtime routine. Sammy still has nights that the only way she will sleep is in the recliner with David. 90% of the...
I have heard of families doing this with bathroom doors for the same reason. We've alredy had one scare with the bathroom. Sammy loves to close doors and she ...
My snowmen are up all year round. A lot of our Christmas decorations are really getting shabby, so now that I have more time I'm going to be making some new...
We moved Ruthie to a toddler bed right after the holidays. She still doesn't do great with laying her in her bed to go to sleep. She did at first, but soon...

I don't have anything against the kids sleeping with us, I just want to get good sleep and with him in the bed--it is kinda tight quarters! Good birth control...
I bookmarked that one. Unless it's a 'hit any key' site, though, she won't be able to do it yet. I'm sure Lucas would like to help her, but if it's her turn...
This is how it was for us. Our oldest never slept with us unless he was actively nursing, then he went right back to his bassinet. It was just how things were...
