I started the bedtime process at 7:30 bringing the locked door in early and had her asleep in bed by 8. Feeling successful, I read Van stories, unlocked Esther's door and then even retreated to watch movies for an hour, finally going to bed myself at 10.
Then at 11:45 PM who should show up in my room? The cutest little footie pajama'ed monster you've ever seen. I can't say I really even remember the rest of the night. I remember various combinations: her in my bed, me in her bed, Van in my bed, diaper changes, bottles, my door locked, her door locked but finally at 3:15 AM we were all asleep again.
So Thursday was a rough day and I learned an important lesson, the door has to stay locked all night.
Last night I fell blissfully asleep at 8:45PM and although I heard some thumping on the door at various times during the night, she never cried so I never moved. It was a glorious night.
I took at picture at 5:30 AM as I was leaving.
Not exactly in the position I left her in, but she made it back to the bed.
