I don't get it. I just don't get it! Kyle is back to waking up 1-3 times a night and wanting to come into our bed. TWICE this week he asked Jay to get out of bed and go sleep in his big boy bed. Literally kicking Jason out of bed so Kyle could sleep on his pillow.
The first sticker chart Kyle had for sleeping in his bed went so well. It was a 2 week chart and he slept in his bed through the night for more than 2 weeks! It was great! I assumed after 2 weeks (plus) we would have established a habit.....guess not. He randomly began waking up and getting out of bed again.
So after a couple weeks of this (I didn't know if maybe it was just a freak week or something) I made him another sticker chart. This chart was for 30 days. If he made it all 30 days he could get the Little People space ship he was begging for. Wouldn't you know for all 30 days (technically more) he slept every night in his bed without waking up once.
Well now here we are a few weeks later and he is getting up again!!!! Seriously?!?!?! How long does it take this kid to form a habit? I have put a humidifier in the room to help him sleep better (white noise) that doesn't work anymore. I am stumped.
Guess I will make him a sticker chart, with NO PRIZE in the end. Stickers seem to suffice. I don't care if he has a whole wall of stickers!!! This little boy needs to get in the habit of going to bed, sleeping in his bed and staying in his bed. We have another little boy joining the crew soon enough and I am not about getting up and down with both of them!
As hard as it is to be upset or distraught with this little face. Ca-MON kiddo SLEEP!!!
Say a prayer for us........I will take anything at this point to get Ky to sleep through the night at this point.
We'll get there. We'll get there. Right? Someday we will get there??? I still need Hailey out of our bed. I am trying to accomplish one baby at a time, but this is A LOT!!! Breathe. Stay calm. We'll get there...... =)
