My Sleeping Beauty has resumed her title. Miss Vienna has always slept like a dream. From one day old, she slept eight to ten hours at a time. <em>It was unbelievable.<\/em> She&#8217;s rarely if ever cried and <strong>never<\/strong> woke up at night. Then about three weeks ago, I thought it was time for her to transition to a &#8220;big girl bed.&#8221; I&#8217;ll be honest, it was a mistake. A little too much, a little too early. That, and I brilliantly decided to transition her to big girl bed when she was very ill with strep throat. What was I thinking? Sometimes I wonder about myself. Needless to say, that&#8217;s when the war began. As illustrated by the photo, we had to revert to extreme measures to keep her sleeping where she should be sleeping. It wasn&#8217;t easy. For awhile, we had to sit on a chair in her room until she fell asleep just to keep her from leaving. But then last night, I tucked her in and she stayed. I left the room and swear I heard a heavenly choir break out in <em>Hallelujah<\/em>. I imagine there will still be a few more battles to win throughout the next couple weeks, but I think the outcome of the war is clear. I have so much advice for Super Nanny. <\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\"><\/div>\n<p align=\"right\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mylivesignature.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"BORDER-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BACKGROUND: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px\" src=\"http:\/\/signatures.mylivesignature.com\/54487\/213\/1B769B0C9152F3A8AEB6C0B8BFF46123.png\" \/><\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With fingers crossed, I am declaring the war won.
