Back in our room

The Bear is back to sleeping in our room at night. Not in our bed. In our room.

We still have the crib converted to a toddler bed located at the end of our bed. And that's where he's slept the last two nights.

For months now, he's awakened every night. And he's walked downstairs and slept on the couch in our family room. The family room is next to our master bedroom. But two nights ago he kept on walking into our room. And trying to get my attention. He was standing on my side of the bed staring at my sleeping face. After asking him deliriously about 5 or 6 times to go back to sleep, the kid gave up trying to get into bed with me. I found him the next morning in the toddler bed. So last night we told him that the toddler bed was an okay place for him to lay his head IF he woke up at night. That he was NOT going to bother us. That he was going to lay down on the toddler bed and go to sleep.

And last night? We didn't get interrupted. I didn't have to wake up. The Bear made his way to the toddler bed and fell asleep. AND he slept in too. Until 7:30am (he normally wakes by 6am each and every morning). Unheard of. But it happened. Thank goodness!
