Brooke's Chart Update

Well we started Brooke's charts on Thursday night.  We decided to not push the "Bink" the first night, but more talk about it getting her ready.  Instead we pushed the "sleep all the way" chart, and I am very happy to say she got a sticker Thursday night for making through the night without waking mommy or daddy....it was great!

Friday night we decided there wouldn't be a better time to push the "No Bink Chart".  She's healthy, we had all weekend to work on it, plus she has slept for like 4 weeks with no "B" at daycare at nap time.  By golly, if Miss T can do it...we should be able to!  It took about 1 1/2 hours of calming her down before we could get her to sleep, and then she was up again crying from 2:30 to 4:00 a.m.  It was definitely a battle of the wills to see who would last longer, as we knew all we had to do was give in to be able to go back to sleep!  I was so proud we did it...o'ya Brooke too :)  She woke around 7:00 a.m. Saturday, but at least we survived the first night! 

We also woke Saturday, to find she decided to fill in her whole "No Bink Chart".  I guess she figured she made it one night, she deserved her new baby!  She did however to get pick out her new lipstick, which made her super excited.


Nap time Saturday afternoon wasn't too bad.  Bed time on Saturday was a little better with still about an hour of calming, and her only waking for about 30 minutes around 2:45.  I was able to get her back to sleep with just some apple...and then a little grape juice.  (We will worry about that battle another night.) 

Nap time on Sunday there wasn't even a mention of the Bink!  I am sure we aren't out of the woods just yet, but excited to think we are hopefully past the worst part...whew!

She loves her new goggles she earned after a successful nap time!



Now she just needs to make it through the week, and we head to Baby's R Us for her new baby next weekend!
