Samuel is a good sleeper. He’s not sleeping through the night yet but he DOES sleep in his own bed and he usually goes down at around 9pm each night without much trouble. This is completely different from our experience with Thomas. I’m not sure if it’s a personality thing or if we are just doing things better the second time around. Each night I give Samuel a bath at around 8:30, swaddle him in the MIracle Blanket and then put him down in the crib. Sometimes he cries a little, but it usually doesn’t take long before he’s asleep for at least a full 4 hours.

By the way – I ran a photo action on this image and I’m not sure if I like it. It’s supposed to be artsy and old-fashioned but I’m afraid it makes him look a little washed out.
