Getting back in the groove

It's not happening quickly. I can't get Ellie to sleep in her own bed. She cries for HOURS. And I give in because at some point she has to sleep when there is school the next day. Last night I was strong until 10:48. It's a sick pattern. We'll try again tonight. There's no school tomorrow so we'll see how long she lasts. Here's some more highlights from our trip.

It was a fun and busy one as usual.

I love the picture of AM in the basket!!

Austin went through a stage where he would not stay in his bed at night. Oh wait, I think we're in that phase again! Anyway, it was while Toby was deployed and I was working so it was very hard and I was exhausted. I started by returning to him his room every time he got up but after the 20th, 30th, 40th time I gave up and let him fall asleep on the couch. At one point I got desperate and put a baby gate in front of his door and let him cry!! It was a very hard time and I can't imagine going through this with a new little one! I don't have any answers but I sure do wish you the best of luck!
