Progress

AJ had another great night of sleep. 7 1/2 hrs!!! I'm trying not to get my hopes up that this is permanent but I'm hoping for the best! I just need to get him sleeping in his crib in his room. He is still in his bassinet and I don't know if I'm ready to have him that far away from me at night.

Noah started his new daycare today and the lady who will be watching him also has a blended family and had some of the same issues that we are going through. The same type of situation with her children's mother and they also lived with grandma before she married their dad. Grandma's are supposed to baby their grandchildren but when they go from living with them and having somebody to stick up for them to Dad when they are in trouble, to living with a Mom and Dad who support each others decisions in diciplining them it is a hard transition for them to make. So, I really think it will be a positive change of environment for Noah and hopefully she can help us work with him to control his emotions. She did mention that her children had to go to family counseling which is not an option we are currently looking at for Noah but if it will help him in the long run we may. I don't think he fully understands why he is upset or sad sometimes and who can blame him? He is 4 for goodness sake. I just want him to have some stability in his life and I really think this will help.
