Sleeping In

We've been working on getting Jacob to sleep in later - mainly because sleeping past 6:30 on the weekend was starting to feel like a dream.

We started by making him sleep in as late as possible on week days when we had to take him to day care. Instead of getting him up early and letting him play while we got ready, we kept him in his crib until about 10 minutes before we left. He quickly got used to this and had no problem sleeping in a little later.

Then on weekends and days I was home we let him stay in his crib until he woke up just chatting. If he woke up to cry for a second or two we'd let him put himself back to sleep. This made a great change in both his morning attitude and need for naps.

Anyway...all of that leads to the fact that this morning I had work extremely hard to wake Mr. Man up for breakfast at 8:00 AM, and it was amazing!
