IT TAKES ONE TO KNOW ONE-

The pitiful truth is that Layla's learned her "witching spells" lately from her mom... the queen witch these days. I'm a hormonal, third trimester wreck. I've cried at least twice a day for the past week. But about an hour after the salt dries from my tear soaked face.... I feel fine. The good news? I'm sleeping much better! Mr Monkey decided that all the sleep training we've been doing has finally paid off by sleeping 8.5 hours at night without needing a bottle! Yes! Second point of fabulous news, my nightly bathroom trip count has drastically decreased this week also! So I am now able to get about 3 hours of uninterrupted sleep at a time during the night and that has me in wonderful spirits in the AM. The mood swings however, those I'm still working on. In fact, they may even be half the culprit of Layla's "naughtiness." But the plan is coming along beautifully.
I know I owe you some posts on the rest of our plan. They'll be rolling in throughout the weekend. But for now, I'm off to finish sewing my halloween costume. It will match Buca's of course. Here's little preview!



Isn't Kday just the handsomest dang thing you've ever seen? Gosh I can't get enough of him!
