big boy bed: update II

so things were great for the first night and since then its not so well. chris finally rocked eli to sleep during nap time and laid him down in his bed. he slept for 1 hour when he usually sleeps for 3.

last night we put him down after his nightly routine and he stayed put. he did get up twice and cry from his door around 3 and 6. chris laid him down at 3 and he went back to sleep and then at 6, he just stayed in there and slept with him...i'm sure because he was exhausted.

we are praying for a break through. hopefully it will come soon.

You are a brave girl! I'm not letting Ellie out of that crib until she learns how to climb out of it herself. I am sure Eli will catch on soon though.

stick to your guns!! :) he will get it soon. We had two weeks of hell with the girls but they finally got it. Nap time was always harder. Hang in there and keep doing what your doing!!

here's some more encouragement for you: Keep it up! i know it's hard, but the fact that he did it that first night means he knows what he's supposed to do. he's just testing the limits of your patience right now. keep firm at naptime. i hate to tell you it may take weeks or months, but this too shall pass.
hang in there!!
