Sleep

I've been reading Dr. Marc Weissbluths' "Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child" for the millionth time. My copy is SO tattered! Anyway, I just LOVE LOVE LOVE it! It breaks down the first 4 months of a newborn's life into weeks, which is fantastic! So Allie is just about at the right age to start teaching her how to fall asleep on her own. So after she's been awake for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours, I swaddle her and put her down. She's been falling right asleep with NO crying. She goes to bed right at 7 every night and only wakes up once to eat. Within a month or so, she'll be right on the same schedule Cam was for his first 2 years of life....Bed at 6:30, Wake up at 7, Nap at 9 and nap at 1. Awesome!!!!

I can't wait to read this!

"Dr. Laura Schlessinger just released her 16th book, “In Praise of Stay-at-Home Moms,” in which she unapologetically urges mothers to remain at home instead of juggle a career and motherhood. "

Allie's Room

So by June, Allie will finally have her own space....I'm horrible at interior decorating, but I do want to do what I can to make it cute for her. I can't decide on a color scheme though, so vote on the poll. We don't have much money (ok, we really shouldn't spend ANY money) to make her room cute.....so any cheap (or free!) decorating ideas would be great! I'm obviously going to have to purchase some bedding....and I mostly want her walls to be covered in pictures of people who love her, like Cam's room. So luckily frames and printing photos is pretty inexpensive. Thanks ladies, you're the BEST!
