I swear, this will be the last update. Ok, I make no promises, I can't help myself. I will probably post about Max's sleeping habits again. But I'll try to give you a few days break from it!
Max slept in his crib the whole night again. And this time, he only woke up once, at 5am. So, I'm gonna say that getting Max to sleep in his crib has been a success. I'm also going to call it for the bed time routine too- another success. Last night while I was getting Max ready for bed, Jeff commented "hate to tell you this, but that kid doesn't look like he's going to go to sleep any time soon." And I had to agree, Max was wide-eyed, smiling, and giggling. But we followed through with his routine, and he went to sleep just like he's supposed to. He seems to know that after his bath, he gets lotioned up, followed by some rocking and eating, and then bed time.
I'm very happy with these results, it has taken a lot less time than I thought it would. Our next goal is getting Max to fall asleep on his own. I'm not really sure how to go about that one.
