Sleeping Update...

So many of you have been so sweet and have been asking me about Carrie's sleeping and how we are all doing over here after a rough few days last week and so I thought it was time for an update. We are happy to report that life has returned to normal around here. WHEW! It only took a couple days following the doctor's advice and we were back on track. She has napped every day from Wednesday on and is back to sleeping 11 hours at night. I even had Graham put her to bed tonight which was no problem! I think I may be free to leave the house again! And looking back on the weeks leading up to those rough days, I realize I had also made many mistakes. I have always kept Carrie on a very structured routine because she obviously thrived on that and this summer we had really let that structure crumble a bit and with that, we also removed a little of her security I think. With school starting back up we will be back in a routine and on a normal schedule and I think that really helps her. So I am hoping to just enjoy my last 6 or 8 weeks of sleep before entering the world of sleepless nights again. And the baby may throw her for a loop all over again, but at least at that point I will be up at night anyways :)!
