So big yet still so small

{Always forever my baby you'll be}
Painting toes, asking for pony tails & braids.. Please slow down! 

And above all else for the first time in a longgggg time she sleeps by herself!

We read some books, I tuck her in and that's it! It hasn't always been this easy and esp with bringing addy home we tried locking her in.. letting her cry. The timing was all wrong! One night I just decided I was TIRED & I didn't want to lay down with her and wait until she fell asleep to shower..clean-up etc. so I brought out one of her fav books-pointed out that if she slept in her bed and went to bed alllll by herself there would be a prize in the morning. She whined a bit..I laid her down and that was it. She doesn't even try to get up and I only left a pink painted penny the first night. We keep saying "is this real life??" Haha- it could not be this easy! It must have just been the right time for her, previously she there was too much change Im thinking...
I look forward to our special mommy and Avah time each night. I know she loves it and craves the attention so it's good for her!
