Big Steps

I put Wyatt down for the night in his crib for the very first time tonight. This was a huge step for me. I am strangely emotional about this. I feel like he is growing up so fast and it just makes me sad. He has been in a bassinet next to our bed since we brought him home from the hospital, and I have loved having him right next to me. I know that it wasn't the best habit in the world to start, but it was just so easy! With me breastfeeding, I could just roll over and get him, nurse him and put him right back down so fast! But after being gone for the last week for Christmas, I figured now was the best time to cut our ties with the bassinet. I pray that he continues to sleep like a champ, and that I get some sleep and don't spend the whole night staring at at the monitor!
