Middie Biddie is having a major whine fest tonight. Normally I just force her to deal with it and check the diaper every 45 minutes or so but tonight, after over 2 hours, I decided to try something different.
I put Teeny Tiny in Middie Biddie's crib with her. I'm watching them party on the monitor having a grand old time together. That's what they normally do over the railings, but now they are interacting with each other on a level I don't think I've seen before.
Obviously neither is getting any sleep. On the other hand, they weren't sleeping before and Middie Biddie was really upset about it. They aren't upset now. When they both get tired of wrestling and start to fade out, I'll go back in and put Teeny Tiny back in her crib.
I'm sure someone will tell me why this is the most awful thing to do for some reason. Oh well. One night of sleep disturbance won't kill them. The clocks change in a couple of days so I'm just pretending that I'm getting them accustomed to the new schedule before it happens. Yeah, that's it! I'm getting them adjusted so it's not a shock! This has nothing to do with just wanting to watch my girls play together in the cutest way possible!
Hoping they get back to normal sleep again soon.
ReplyDeleteNot only pro-actively working the time change but also the time when they leave cribs behind entirely..... and do 'sleep overs' with each other. As long as they don't damage each other and both enjoy it..... go for it! GOOD JOB MOM!!!!!
