First time in Crib

On June 14th, I finally caved and decided to let Logan sleep in his own crib. This of course was a very thought out process. We got him the Angelcare Monitor. This bad boy does it all. It has a sensor pad that goes under the mattress. This pad sets off an alarm if the baby were to stop breathing. We have tested it by picking him up. And let me just tell you, I will not sleep through that alarm. I has a temperature display. And an alarm will sound if it is too cold or too warm in his room. Is has a million other features, but those were the ones that mattered most to me.

We got him ready for bed quite early that night. And I layed him down in his crib. He now actually looks like he should be in there. Whereas when I placed him in there at about 2 months he looked like a dot compared to the bed.
See Photo below when he was just a little dot:



I did not want him to sleep alone. So I layed a mattress in his room. And I stayed in there with him. However, I begged Eric to join us. I didnt want Logans first night to be by himself. And of course he dont know any different. His eyes were closed the minute we shut the lights off. haha

In the middle of the night I woke up. And oh my God...I was so sore. So I looked at Logan. He was just fine. And I said to Eric "come on lets go to our bed." Forget that. So we grabbed the handset and went to our room. He slept just fine until about 4:30. I got him and fed him. And then put him back down to bed.

I am sure he only woke up because we put him to bed so early. Otherwise he would have been just fine.

So we made it! Another milestone for the Loganator. And it only took 5 months and 4 days. hahah
