We have a trend!

Last night, we got 7 glorious, continuous hours of sleep!  Then, we got 2 more after a 30 minute interlude that included a new diaper and, unfortunately, a new outfit and a bottle.  AB (for Angel Baby, of course) went right back to sleep.  Hurrah!!!

If you're doing the math,  you've got to be wondering when we go to bed at night.  Lately, it's been 8:30pm because we're anticipating a night like last week where we're up for 3 hours.  And, because we know that while 2 data points technically makes a trend, I'd like to gather more data.

If she hadn't started sleeping through the night again, we were going to employ some tough love using the Ferber method.  Nobody was looking forward to that.  We tried it with her late afternoon nap on Sunday and she cried for an hour straight unless we went into her room.  Then she'd flash a big, happy smile.  Maybe just the threat of using it at bedtime was enough.  Whatever the reason, we're feeling much better around here.

Oh!  Oh!  Aaaaaand...my hair stopped falling out.  Bonus!
