The Waker

Habits are hard to break for Tori, especially the one about getting up in the middle of the night. We've left her in her bed during her waking spell and she usually goes back to sleep in 20 minutes of voicing her displeasure. 2 nights ago she awoke and bonked her nose about 10 pm. She got a minor bloody nose and got to sleep with Ollie and her Mama in the big bed. At least until they fell asleep then their Mama was able to sneak out for 4 hours of sleep. Last night seemed to go better. Her brother's protestation about sleeping in his bed woke her around 9:30. She was biting her railing while standing up, so she got a bit of medicine in case she was teething and laid back down, much to her dismay. She went to sleep before 10 and if she woke up in the night, I didn't hear her. That's probably good for training her to sleep through the night. Maybe she'll get the idea soon and stop waking all together.

In other training news, I don't know if potty training her will be any easier than it was to train Ollie. Last night Tori started to poop in the tub, so I grabbed her and put her on the potty because it is soo much fun cleaning poop out of a tub. She squealed and screamed when I sat her on there and laid flat and as stiff as a board, fighting it all the way. Luckily she still went in the toilet and not on any where else. After that she was done with her bath and ready to be dried off and dressed to play.
