Sleepin' hard or hardly sleepin'

The day Nate and I bought a swing it changed my(our)life forever. I was not getting any sleep. Campbell was not sleeping very good at all. I remember the first time we put her in it. She was asleep in 10 seconds or less...no joke. She slept in it for naps and bedtime for about 2 weeks. I decided it probably wasn't the best thing to do but I wasn't willing to go cold turkey on our swing. So...she napped in it and I would swing her to sleep every night until I was confident she was out for the night. I would then very carefully move her to the bassinet. This was a good plan and it worked well. Last month I new it was time to give up the swing. Nothing happened I just felt like I wanted to break this habit before C became a toddler. Oh and batteries aren't cheap. I'm convinced that Fisher-Price secretly owns Duracel and Energizer. I haven't used batteries since ghetto blasters went out of style and everything that makes noise from Fish-P takes batteries. It's a conspiracy...I think. Back to my really interesting swing story. So, yeah...it was a rough night but I just laid her in the bassinet and left the room. She cried for a good hour. After that, I never looked back. Our next little issue was the bassinet. I have a pack'n play but I just hated hunching over to pick her up so she remained in the bassinet. The funny thing about bassinets is that there not very big. C was starting to make a C shape in the bassinet. That kind of clued me in that it was time for another upgrade. So...we bought a crib...finally. So, cool story, eh? Sorry but I wanted to document this little slice of Campbell history. Sweet dreams.
