They grow up so fast!!!<BR/><BR/>Maleia slept in a bassinet for 6 months, in our room. She was so tiny, and quite I was afraid of SIDS, or I wouldn't be able to hear her over the baby monitor. I started off, putting her in the crib for naps during the day at 5 and 1/2 months, to see how she would do. Then at 6 months she started sleeping in her crib at night, but if she woke up during the night I would feed her and put her in the bassinet. It took about 1 week for her to be comfortable in her crib at night. She has slept through the night since day one, so for her to be in her own room, it was like she knew I wasn't right there. <BR/><BR/>He is doing great!!! Poor Hamilton... he looked so sad. :( But, he will figure out that Colby will be his best friend!!!<BR/><BR/>Love, <BR/>Jamie, Jordan, and MaleiaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534361989897907567.post-51164884593284277692008-01-06T22:37:00.000-05:002008-01-06T22:37:00.000-05:00Hi guys…Hannah slept in her crib from day one…I di...Hi guys…Hannah slept in her crib from day one…I did try the bassinet, but all she did was cry in it. You two are lucky to take turns...my husband was injured in the line of duty (you already know that), and it was just Hannah and I. It was hard, but we got through it. Colby looks great...and super CUTE!!!<BR/>Love, Mary and HannahAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534361989897907567.post-90772693134302710932008-01-06T21:09:00.000-05:002008-01-06T21:09:00.000-05:00I loved the end watching Colby watch the toy as he...I loved the end watching Colby watch the toy as he sucked his pacifier. Great multi-tasking, little guy!! <BR/><BR/>Our daughter was bottle fed. She slept in the bassinet in our room. Whoever was "on" that night slept with her. The person who was off, slept in the guest room for minimal interruptions. This lasted 6 weeks until she slept for longer periods. Then she went into her own room. With the twins, we all spent the first 6 weeks at home together in our room. I was nursing them and since there were two, Brian needed to help with every feeding. There were no nights "off" that time around! <BR/><BR/>The noises are distracting. I swear Alaina would sleep for three hour stretches in the beginning, but I would only sleep for one. The first hour she slept she was vocal and the last hour she was more vocal - haha! Sleep will come with time.Cynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06088635344095630360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534361989897907567.post-35710693893876099792008-01-06T14:07:00.000-05:002008-01-06T14:07:00.000-05:00I want to reach through the computer screen and pi...I want to reach through the computer screen and pinch those cheeks!

It has so many uses. Colby has so much to say! I think Hamilton will become more interested in Colby as time goes on. Especially when colby starts getting into solids. Hamilton will be happy to clean him up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534361989897907567.post-4252924992366418172008-01-06T00:53:00.000-05:002008-01-06T00:53:00.000-05:00Colby looks really great :) I love the video, he'...Colby looks really great :) I love the video, he's so alert and so cute. I agree the Boppy is a great invention. <BR/><BR/>Tyler slept in our room for three months after he came home, in his own for a month while our house was on the market, back with us for three months at the inlaws while awaiting our new house, and finally in his own at ten months. He never had a problem transitioning from one place to another. He always slept better in his own room (he had his apnea monitor until he was 7 months). Our youngest Addison slept in our bed until she was six months, now at nine months, tonight is her first night in her room!!! Totally unlike Tyler, she knows it's different, and she's not happy about it. <BR/><BR/>Before we went through the preemie experience, we said our kids would never be in our room. Now, I could care less. They're only babies once, if Addie ends up in our room till she's five, that's fine...we'll cherish every slumber party (Tyler's on our floor tonight, Addie was screaming too loud. His speech is limited, but on the monitor he kept signing "help", and saying, "mama, baby, mama, baby"). I love my video monitor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
