Sleeping Schedule

Well, it seems like we keep working on Coy's sleeping schedule. He will start to sleep through the night, then something happens and he is up again. So now, he wakes up each night at 2:00 am...like clock work. At his last DR checkup, she told us he didn't need that 2 AM bottle...problem is that he still wakes up for it and cries for it. So we have been working with him to try and go back to sleep. First we tried giving him a little juice, then water, now we are down to just changing his diaper and patting him on the bottom or turning on his mobile and letting him fall back asleep. Last night it worked perfectly...but I'm nervous for those nights when he will just keep crying. The Book says at his age it is ok to let him cry it out...that is going to be really hard to do. But, with my career change coming in a couple of weeks a full nights sleep would be great to get me off to a good start!

I'm finally 1 week and 2 days post-op...but still cant hold or pick up Coy and I miss it so much!! But I've had some wonderful help over the past week and I know we can get through it...only another 1 1/2 weeks until I can be independent again!! YEAH!

Next Friday is my last day at my current job, but today is the last day all of us girls will be here together so I brought them a little something. I made each lady her own unique Key of Life. It is a large metal key that I wrote a word on that describes them and is what I think a specific valuable key to their life. Then I added jewels and ribbon to make it cutesy...they loved it! Here is a picture of one of them...

I'm really excited about teaching...but nervous at the same time. Not really sure what to expect, it is totally different from anything I've ever done. But ready for a change!
