Our ...Love these photos of your adorable daughter! Our children were pretty good sleepers until age 2-3 when they "discovered monsters". Then we had to sleep with them until they fell asleep. Started weaning them off at age 4, saying we'll keep checking on them. Then miraculously at age 5 they decided they can sleep by themselves! Many times it was horrible for our sleep and sanity, but looking back, it was wonderful to have this time with them. I'm an adult and don't like sleeping alone either so totally understandable that they wouldn't either! Good luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38184985.post-81278810149406937532010-12-19T07:44:07.343-05:002010-12-19T07:44:07.343-05:00First of all.... your daughter is so absolutely pr...First of all.... your daughter is so absolutely precious! I LOVE the picture of her looking for her belly button in the mirror. You really captured her perfectly.<br /><br />As I was reading your post it took me back to so many feeling I had when my little boy was just home. We experienced a lot of the same things. Sleep was a big problem. My husband and I are not able to co-sleep. My son did not want to accept that and would constantly wake up and come into our room. We would do the back and forth (screaming on his part) to the point where my hubby would sleep on his bedroom floor. There was not much sleeping going on around here for a long time. I just want you to know there definitely is a light at the end of the tunnel. Now he asks to go to bed when he's tired (I'm knocking on wood right now!). He is an amazing sleeper. It took a long time and a lot of patience, but it will happen. Whatever way works for you is the best.<br /><br />I know you are going to have an amazing Christmas with your family. I'm looking forward to seeing your pictures and video from your celebration.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />GraceLove Letters To Chinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07274460455404016042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38184985.post-18462893953990796122010-12-18T17:49:35.316-05:002010-12-18T17:49:35.316-05:00I love your monthly posts.

What Nugget used to eat last month, he won't touch this month. I was relieved when you said that veggies have become a no no. I was worried. <br /><br />Nugget and I have a much different relationship that he and R. R is his play buddy. I am his comfort, but then there are times he strikes out. It is hard, but you are so right he needs time, patience, and lots of love. It makes me sad that these babies have to guard their little hearts so. <br /><br />Thank you so much for this post. It is so good to know that things aren't totally crazy with a toddler ~ just a little crazy! :o)Polar Bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13525384893396636212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38184985.post-51132836427696561102010-12-17T21:35:03.350-05:002010-12-17T21:35:03.350-05:00She is so cute!

It is hard when no one is sleeping. Do what you have to do!! No judging here! We didn't co-sleep with Lucy. Some people think that is the only way to do it. I have to check my sugar and get up and down sometimes so co-sleeping was not what I wanted to do. Some days it would have been easier but I am so glad we didn't start it! Lack of sleep hasn't changed Jennifer's cuteness!!! Merry Christmas. It is going to be so much fun this year!! <br /><br />MelanieDex and Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06765237244877190510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38184985.post-47307508330058702102010-12-17T14:32:24.091-05:002010-12-17T14:32:24.091-05:00Jennifer is just gorgeous!

She's starting to say 2-3 word phrases but context is the key to understanding her still. She will start preschool Jan. 4 and will have lots of language work which I hope will help.<br /><br />SueTony and Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09382268414299769901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38184985.post-27460780857757431342010-12-17T10:40:12.263-05:002010-12-17T10:40:12.263-05:00Wow 20 months already!

Just an...Wow 20 months already! The time flies! <br /><br />Just an FYI, Emi will be 3 in Feb and she's been home for nearly 18 months and we're still have the occasional sleep issues. Sometimes it is a full out panic waking but most of the time it's just fussing and she won't settle herself. She also does not like to put herself to bed at night either and we are allowing her to fuss/cry more when we initially put her down for the night. But we can't always let her wake up the entire house so we do get up in the middle of the night to put her back down. Hope it gets better! I'm ready for long weeks where we go without having to get up in the middle of the night!Lienehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11572578381386253334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38184985.post-19681838693141585372010-12-17T09:47:07.752-05:002010-12-17T09:47:07.752-05:00Thrilled over here with these photos!
