Night time Experiment

We have noticed K is really cranky and tired around 7:00 each evening. We have been putting her down for bed between 8:30 and 9:30. She would sleep until 2am or 3am for a feeding and start her day between 6 and 7am. The scientist in Daddy wanted to experiment and try putting K down at 7:30 and seeing how long she would sleep for. Would she wake up earlier or would she still sleep until 2 or 3am?? That same night he wanted to see if she would sleep in her crib also. K has been sleeping in the pack and play in our room but it doesn't provide a firm support for K 's back and it was time for her to get use to her crib.

Daddy's experiment was successful! K still slept until 3am and didn't cry until it was feeding time. She also lasted in her crib and started her day at 6:30am. So now we can put her down earlier and have some time to ourselves and we have a happier baby since she is well rested. Win-win situation for all :) But that's see how the next night goes..more to come.

Here's a picture of K when we first put her down



Here's where she ended up when she woke up in the morning. What a wiggler! She turned 180 degrees!
