A Christmas Miracle

Shan and I have now slept through the night two nights in a row! At our house that definitely counts as a miracle.
For the last couple weeks all three of our boys have been waking up multiple times in the night. Sometimes even thinking they were ready for the day at three in the morning. So I finally bribed Carson with a fire truck if he would stay in his bed all night long for three nights. And it worked! Lucky enough for us the other two boys followed suite and Shan and I are now feeling much more rested! Thank you boys. This is a picture of the boys with their reward! It was well worth the ten bucks!

It is amazing that something as simple as sleeping through the night can be such a blessing. I feel your pain. Samantha still wakes up in the night. I am hoping I can break her of her bad habits by the time baby #2 comes along.

When I was little, my mom bribed me with a birthstone ring, if I would stop sucking my thumb. It worked! And now my daughter has found the power of bribery! So glad it is working for you! Enjoy the sleep while you can!!! Nice job. Mom
