Woooooot!!!

This doesn't make a difference in anyone else's life but I have got to share - Tyler has slept through the night for two nights in a row now and I'm counting on a third one tonight.

I think, being a first time mom and all, I did very very well except for the sleeping part. It didn't help that he was a colicky newborn that the only thing that made him stop crying was mommy's presence. We started co-sleeping and trust me, I can't even count the times we tried to put the little rugrat in his own bed... each time we failed miserably. Just last month, I was successful for 3 nights getting him off the boob and having him sleep on his own in his crib but it didn't last long. I couldn't take much of the hours of crying anymore and decided to take it one step at a time. Now he still sleeps with us but puts himself to sleep and now he is sleeping through the night. A good start towards the right direction. Soon, we will love him in his crib but I don't think it won't be until he understands bribes.

This is a mistake I will not repeat on my second child though, that much I can promise!
