on her own

Trying to catch her toes . . .

My precious little baby

For weeks now I've been saying "tonight will be the night Tegan sleeps in her own room". Then when bedtime rolls around I change my mind and say "one more night with me". Well, last night I did it. I put Tegan to bed in her own room. I must say she did a lot better than I did. I spent most of the night looking at the monitor on my nightstand and I was up every 2 hours to check on her. She had an okay night for being in a "new" room and a "new" bed. She woke up twice to eat but went right back to bed. I told Aaron as we laid in our quiet dark room last night that it was a sad moment for me because my last baby has left the bassinet and has made her first move towards more independence. This morning I woke up to her talking and cooing through the monitor. I had to snap a few pictures of her in all her cuteness . . .
