Bedtime With Abby

For about a month now We have had a bedtime routine with Miss Abby...we take her up to her room, change her into her PJs, wash her face and gums. Once she is dressed and washed for bed Jim gives her an evening bottle.

Usually, when Abby is getting her bottle she is holding daddy's hand...

Once she is full I swaddle her up like a burrito and then Jim reads her a story...

Once the story has reached its last page then it is time for kisses and then straight to bed. Abby has become very used to this routine. Even if her eyes are open when we lay her in her crib she is able to put herself to sleep within a few minutes.

She has started sleeping better since we began this routine. Once we put her to bed she is sleeping on average 5 hours. Now we just have to get her to sleep longer from 2 am on.

This bedtime routine has helped us to have a happy baby in the morning...
