Sleep...

Well, Aria's been doing a lot of it since all the cousins (and aunts & uncles) have left. Two nights ago she slept through the night for the first time since about this time last year. Last night, not so much. It was a struggle to put her down (thanks, Brad - I was out) and she lasted only until about 5. *sigh*

One of the best pieces of advice Brad & I received about parenting came from his dad, who told us that parenting is not linear. Keeping that in mind means we celebrate the new (sleeping longer), but don't hold onto it too tightly. I know she'll sleep through the night again, but I didn't go to bed last night expecting it.
