New bed time agenda...................

We have implemented a new bed time plan at the X5 household. Now we are eating our final bottles (Olivia only, boys are sip cups only) in the high chairs while we hear a nice bed time story. Once stories are finished, it is off to bed. This is the third night of doing it and it seems to be working well. A little crying but from now on when its time for bed its time. We also have cut the boys from bottles. We were doing cups and bottles (mom and dad addicted to the ease of bottles) but have decided to cut ourselves and them off cold turkey.

For all the people we have read about and talked to that have said the first year was the hardest and it got easier from there, they have lost some of their marbles from those sleepless nights. I feel that it has gotten much more difficult due to the fact that they are all mobile and now have realized they can talk. The why stage will probably make us want to lock ourselves outside. Why X3.................very scary. But this is our life and we would not change it for a million dollars.
