A month ago Ruby was crazy at night time. Crazy. And she would not go to bed without a fight. Alli did not like bedtime either.
All that has changed.
Alli got a CD player for her birthday. She listens to stories on CD at bedtime. She loves it so much that she goes to bed early without complaint. Once I turn on the stories, I don't hear another peep from her. Andy downloaded a bunch of free stories off of this website and burned them onto a CD. Andy is awesome.
Ruby no longer fights bedtime either. Tonight, I held her hand and walked her to her trundle bed. She got into bed, I pulled up the covers and kissed her. And she stayed there. She is sleeping through the night in the trundle.
It took some hard work, late nights, and persistence, but I am quite happy with the bedtime routine.
We have come a long way... baby.
