Brayden Bear has moved to his room and he LOVES it...Mom and Dad, not so much!

Most people know that Caitlin and Casey slept in my bed until they were old...very old.  To be honest, they slept with me until Ryan was there to replace them. Casey on my left and Caitlin on my right...and we slept that way for about 12 years.  Well, when I got pregnant with Brayden I swore to myself that it wouldn't happen again.  So, Brayden's first night at home we had the bassinet ready, but he was so sweet and cuddly that it only made sense he sleep right on my chest.  Over the next few weeks Ryan and I would take turns throughout the night snuggling with Bear and we loved every second of it.  He was only a few weeks old so we didn't feel all that guilty about it.  I did however realize that I had completely gone against my word and I was starting to doubt my own justifications for him sleeping with us.  After I started to feel guilty about the situation I decided it was time to try the bassinet out again so we put him in it one night...for a whole 5 minutes!  He didn't like it and honestly I was just fine with that...I loved him sleeping with us and Ryan did too.  The past 3 weeks or so Bear hasn't been sleeping very well.  He has been very fidgety and restless.  Well, we eventually came to realize that we might be the problem.  We put him in his bed a couple of nights ago and he clearly loved it.  Sunday morning he slept in his bed until 8:30 in the morning.  Last night we decided we would put him in his bed again and Brayden loved it, unfortunately his Dad didn't.  I woke up at 2 AM to find Ryan rocking him and he eventually confessed that Bear didn't actually wake up, he just got him up because he missed him.  I figured since he was out of the bed already that I would at least get my turn with him.  Sadly, Brayden couldn't get comfortable so we put him back in his bed where he went to sleep and stayed there until 6:30 this morning.  I'm happy he loves his bed and I'm sad he loves his bed.   Although, I did come to the realization today that I really miss cuddling with my husband, so that is what I will do tonight...that is, until Bear wakes up for a feeding or a cuddle of his own...and when he does I'm sure Ryan and I will be pushing each other over to see who can get to Brayden first!
