Weaning and Sleep Train update

Everything has been going smoothly!! Graison now cries for 10 minutes tops before falling asleep.  He still wakes up wanting me in the middle of the night but I think that will be our last step to cover.  

Tonight I moved him into his room at grandmas and he cried for half a minute then stared at his fishy lamp until he fell asleep.  I had him in his own room earlier for nap and had finally had some success, he slept maybe 2-3 hours and would've kept sleeping had I not awakend him.  I am hoping tonight goes smooth and that maybe I'll get luck and he will sleep through the night. We shall see. 

As for weaning, we do not breastfeed in the day anymore. We do however breastfeed when he's trying to go back to sleep after needing me in the middle of the night.  Graisons not really huge on Binkies or bottles so I have basicly been the pacifier, idk how to go about removing that security. I've tried replacing it with the binky but to no avail he still wants me. 

In other news it's getting closer and closer to Sheydens return and I am sooo excited!!! This Sunday is my birthday and I will be 23!!!  I actually am one of those gals who looks forward to getting older, it comes with experience and knowledge and love!!! So no I'm not sad I'm turning 23 and I don't think I will be sad at 30,40,50...maybe menopause but that's normal for women lol. The only thing I'm sad about is I won't be spending my birthday, thanksgiving, or Christmas with my husband, and this year is a big Christmas year for Graison. He will be so amazed by the whole holiday!! We will be able to do it though!

I hope we have a house when we get back to Washington, as I am turning in the application by mail. I also don't want to live on base again, but it will save us lots of money and that makes me happy about it.  Well I've drawn a blank and am tired so until next time, Ta-Ta!
