As many of you already know, Aidan was a die-hard co-sleeper. I was beginning to think he was going to be in our bed forever! Well yesterday we bought him a brand new mattress (CostCo had mattresses for onlyt $130!!) and made a really big deal about him getting a special bed etc, etc, etc. He was all game for it until bedtime, then all heck broke lose and the screaming began. After we discussed the bed again and read stories, drank water, etc. the crying only lasted about 10 minutes while I sat about 15 feet away (he could see that I was still there), and off to dream land he went!! WOOO HOOO!!! I woke up about 5 times checking on him because I was so used to his elbow in my spine but he slept clear through to about 8 am! And now he is napping in his bed as well! I think we have success!!
