~Sleeping Beauty~

Aylah is now sleeping in her bed all by herself.  Which after 4 years of sleeping in mommy and daddy's room, this is a huge accomplishment.  We have really enjoyed her sleeping in our room, it gives us more time together, plus there is nothing like watching her sleep and waking up to her beautiful face every morning.  However, I was needing a little bit more time alone and time to rest with the baby coming, so we made the change.  Aylah has done a great job, except there are a few rituals that must be followed every night.  The lights have to be on, all her animals have to be in "order" and pink puppy has to be on her head, then she has to be covered up with her blanket, hug and kiss and promised mommy will return to check on her within a few minutes.  Most of the time she is fast asleep before mommy returns, but there are times that she's waiting with a big ole smile on her face to make sure I'll keep my promise.  If she has to go to the bathroom, she likes to sneak out of her room, walk as quietly as she can to the restroom, close the door, turn on the light, then potty and sneak back so we'll never know she was there.
