The last two nights Bea has started this new thing. I'm gonna call it a phase because I really hope that's all it is. Normally Bea falls asleep in out bed, and then once she's asleep we move her into her crib. Well the last two nights she's been waking up just as we put her into her crib. Last night was the second night she almost slept in our bed. I woke up at 1 a.m. because I was practically falling off the bed. (Bea tends to take up a lot of space.) I scooped her up and walked her to her room and as soon as I put her in her crib she woke up and started crying! I picked her back up and took her back to bed with us where she immediately fell back to sleep. I laid there and thought about what is going to happen once the new baby comes. There is no way Bea can be sleeping with us. I was also considering what would happen if I just left her in her crib. She would have to cry it out. At first I thought, tomorrow, if she does this again tomorrow night I'll tackle it then. And then I thought, no I needed to nip this in the bud now. So I got up and put her back in her crib. She cried. I turned on her night light and shut the door. She continued to cry. I didn't budge. She eventually feel asleep. I wonder how long this will go on.
In other news I got a call last night from my high school English teacher. We've kept in touch over the years and she was back in town and would like to see my family. I figured we'd meet somewhere. As it turns out she's going to come to my house! My house has been a mess for a while. And I'm serious. It's been hideous, my family and Sergio have seen it first hand. It's rather embarrassing for me, but I just haven't been motivated to get up off my ass and do something about it. Well now I had to. And I think I over did it. I was feeling fine getting the house cleaned making good time. Izak and Bea went to get lunch. Once they were back I took a break to eat. Well probably an hour or so later my lunch was not sitting well. My first official puking of this pregnancy. UGH. And what's worse I have one more room to do! :( Maybe I'll tackle it tomorrow.
I have a bunch of pictures to post of all the shenanigans that Bea's gotten into this weekend. I will post later.

It really could just be a phase. Adam has had a couple nights like that. I think that you did the right thing in making her stay in her crib, even though it is tough hearing her cry :( It will just be better in the long run. The only time Adam gets to sleep with anybody is when he is with his gandparents, who can never seem to say no to him. ;)
girlfriend needs to sleep in her crib! I had to let Madison cry it out and it worked by the third night. The first night we did our normal routine of bath and book....and then we put her in her crib. She cried for a little while and fell asleep. The second night we did the same thing and she cried for even less.. and the third no crying at all. Now she goes down like that for naps and for bedtime....no crying! It's great! Good luck! If you stick with it, it WILL work! She will also sleep better because she knows where she is when she falls asleep. :) sorry about the puking thing. It'll pass soon hopefully. Did you at least feel a little better after puking? I never did, but I heard it helps some people :)
