Separation Anxiety!!

Wednesday last week, I decided to separate Kyle and Jack.  They were waking each other up during the night and even when napping.  I thought it would be best for the next little while, until both are sleeping through the night on a regular basis.  Kyle sure has performed well being apart--he's sleeping through the night just great.  He is sleeping about 12-14 hours it's wonderful.  Jack on the other hand is still getting up to nurse at about 5:30 am and then he's down another 4-5 hours.  Not too shabby!!  Hopefully soon, Jack can follow the example of his older brother.   Here's a picture of their room with only 1 crib.  Since we only have 3 bedrooms upstairs Kyle's new room is the bathroom.  haha  But he will only be in there for a couple of months if not sooner.  
Kyle's new room.
The other day I gave Kyle and Jack "Melba Toast".  THEY LOVED IT!!!  As you'll see from the mess all over their faces.  : )

Good idea, I hope the sleeping continues to improve. I can't believe what a good night's sleep does for my day.

You are amazing!

well, Jill and I will ba faced with the same kind of thing... 2 bedroom place with 2 kids... Derek's doing pretty good throughout the night, but he's way too sensitive to anything let alone a screaming baby... we'll figure it out though... Derek will probably get his room until Taylor sleeps through the night.
