Crib Life

This week my baby will turn 8 months old and I can honestly say that she has not spent a single night in her crib.  As most know, we have co-slept with Catie since she was an infant and that has been the best way for ALL Rexroats to sleep at night.

During nap times, she usually sleeps in her big cradle swing.  She has logged over a hundred hours in her swing, but she is sadly getting to be too big for her swing.

So today while I was working, my mom kept Catie.  Catie Grace was having a rough and fussy day so mom tried to put her down to sleep.  It took several minutes of casually hanging out in the room with Catie but she eventually fell asleep.  HER FIRST TIME EVER IN A CRIB!! 

It only lasted for 20 minutes but I guess it's a first. 




Now, we have no plans of quitting co-sleeping at night just yet.  I plan to wean night-time feedings around her first birthday and at that time then we will work towards getting her into her own bed at night, but for now we are enjoying this stage of life.
