Lazy Morning Movie

We are still having trouble with Piper
not sleeping through the night.

Since having a ten week string of headaches last year,
I've given up the battle of trying to keep her in her bed all night.
It just ends up making me sick, literally!

So now, when Piper comes out of her room after I've gone to bed,
(I do put her back in her own bed
if she comes out before my bedtime)
she usually just crawls in my bed next to me.

On nights that Mark works there is lots of room,
so it's not an issue.
When Mark is working day shifts,
it interrupts his sleep so that he is tired the next day.
It's a problem.
We're working on it,
but it is a problem.

One thing we're testing out is a toddler bed in our room.
This way, 
she can come into our room,
but not into our bed.

We tried it once before,
but it only worked for a few nights 
before she wanted back in my bed.

Just last night she asked for it again.

I don't even know what time she came out into my room last night,
as for the first time in ages I didn't have to get up,
and she crawled into the little toddler bed
at the foot of my bed. 

I didn't hear another sound from her until 7:00.

Fingers crossed this may help our sleep situation!

Elliotte joined her big sister for a cuddle and an episode of Word Party
in the morning while Mommy drank her coffee.
It was lovely!
