Through the night.

We are officially trying to get Courtney to sleep through the night. We probably should have done this a month ago, but as you all know time flies. Last night was the first night we attempted it. She went to bed very well at 9PM and like clockwork woke up at 12:30AM. I proceeded to go in, pat her back and leave. The second I stopped touching her, screaming ensued! I let her go for 5 minutes, went in and patted her back, left, and again the screaming. I waited 6 minutes... same thing... but after this time, around the 4 minute mark she was quite and I could hear her sucking her thumb. Success! She fell asleep and didn't wake up until 7AM. I hope that we make progress every night and in the end it will be worth the stress!
