She went to sleep!

Lolli has been alive for 11 months, 5 days and around 8 hours… and she JUST went to sleep on her own for the first time :)

She started rubbing her eyes after breakfast, so Lauren changed her, took her into the bedroom, nursed her, and then laid down on the bed with her. Lolli kept wanting to play with Lauren, which was really frustrating to Lauren since she knew Lolli was tired.

So Lauren stuck her in her crib, gave her a kiss and walked out, totally expecting to hear agonizing screams blaring over the monitor. NOPE! Lolli whined for all of 7 seconds and it’s been quiet ever since!

So, for all of you new moms who are worried that cosleeping, night nursing, rocking baby to sleep, extended swaddling, etc, will lead to a baby who never goes to sleep on her own – Lolli is proof that it will eventually happen :)

ETA: Ok, it’s 1:31pm and she just did it AGAIN! I love it, but let's hope it’s not just a sign of getting sick or something, LOL!
