14 days and counting

Blake has struggled the past few months going to bed on his own. He used to do awesome at this but since the new year, he has decided that mommy needs to sleep with him. I've tried different tactics and read up on my parenting books and finally decided to quit laying with him until he falls asleep but rather sit in the rocking chair next to his bed. If he could fall asleep this way and not come get me in the middle of the night, I would give him a sticker for a chart and then after 4 stickers we would go to Monkey Joe's. Well he's doing great and now 14 stickers later, I'm going to go broke because this little boy isn't letting me out of my deal. Oh well, I'm just happy to be able to sleep in my own bed.............

  1. Carson did this too a few month ago! I started to sleep in his bed with him, but realized that was not the best solution. Sounds like the sticker thing is working for you!! We ended up buying The Good Nite Lite...worked like a charm for us. You should check it out! :)
