The Sleep Champ.....Finally!

Around Valentine's Day, Levi had his first tooth pop up followed by the one right next to it on the very bottom front- so cute to see his two little teeth! What's funny is that last year on Valentine's Day, Ty got his first tooth and he was screaming at the restaurant so we had to leave early, haha.

Levi loves his Johnny Jumper but hasn't quite figured out the jumping part yet, like Ty did right away. He walks everywhere in his walker though. He's currently at the stage where he wants to move so bad but doesn't know how yet except to arch his back and roll everywhere. Soon enough, Lev!

Levi will be 8 months old next week- ahh! Where has time gone?! I always think of 8 month old babies and my older brother, Tyrell, who Ty was named after. He was 8 months old when he died in March of 1984- just make me cringe. Levi and him were both born in July. Can't imagine having that happening. 8 months just seems like they've been in your life for forever yet their lives are just barely, barely starting. My mom is a strong woman.

Levi has started to fall asleep in the most random places and positions. If he's tired there is no noise in the entire house that can wake him up- that's what happens when you live with a little Ty Ty. He also loves his bottle now- yay!! (Now I'm really on my way to having my own body back!)

Well, it only took 7 months but Levi finally sleeps 11-12 hours straight in his own bed and in his own room with the door closed and lights off!! Woot woot!! Finally all my hard work at sleep training him has paid off and it is gloriously wonderful and beautiful and so satisfying!!! I love it and I especially love how happy he is in the mornings when he wakes up and is just playing in his crib! I know most babies do this way earlier but both of my boys have struggled with sleeping well and Ty never really mastered it so I feel just a little bit proud of myself. :)

However, the most ironic part of all is that around this same exact time of Levi sleeping so well, Ty has started waking up in the night several times and will just climb out of bed and walk into our room, wanting to sleep in our bed with us. Is it possible to have all your kids sleep through the night all at the same time?? Haha!
