Mommy! What's that sound?.... That's what I have woke up to at 5am every day for the last week. I like to think that I am pretty good at tackling new problems and situations that arise, but this one just has me stumped!
Somewhere, somehow Amelia has suddenly became aware of all of the noises around and in our home. She wakes up like clock work at 5am and screams like someone is attacking her, that she is scared and monsters are coming to get her. In reality we live fairly close to train tracks, and a train comes through at about that time each morning. I am assuming that the train is what is waking her up and startling her. The odd part to me is that, we have lived here for almost a year. Until I can come up with something to remedy the situation... I will just have to remain stumped!
On a good note, we have been able to put Amelia to bed without a juice cup for a week and counting! I think that going to a "big girl cup" has helped a lot. I put her to bed, tell her goodnight, and give her a sip of milk out of a regular cup. Then she goes to bed and knows she isn't allowed any more until the morning when she gets up. I am trying to get her as close to the big girl bed as I can before Piper makes her arrival. For Christmas she is getting bed rails, a new comforter set (thanks to Nanny and Granddaddy), and a twin sized bed (once again thanks for Nanny and Granddaddy. Now if we can just get a routine together for bath, book, bedtime... I believe we will be there!
