Okay I think I overdid it on the last post. I almost deleted it but didn't. I want to start with the fact that I love my daughter so much and would never want to leave her. I was just so tired and I wasn't thinking normally.
Anyway, last night was so much better. I think she was just testing us and in turn was making herself tired too. She went to bed at 7:30 and didn't wake till 3 to eat. She did wake a few times before that but settled herself back to sleep like we were trying to teach her. She then woke up again at 7:30. I figured she was up for the day but she was just hungry and so tired she fell asleep and slept till 10:40. Oddly Tony and I were both up by then and showered and waiting for her so that we could go into Langley and get shopping done. She was in a great happy smiley mood just like she normally is when we aren't trying to sleep train her. I know it was only one night and it might just be a fluke that she slept well but it meant I got sleep too! She has also been having good naps today and it closing in on 2 hours. I hope this means that we have figured out the sleep thing and all will be good. I am perfectly content getting up once a night to feed her at the moment and will work on weaning off that one in a bit. I just wanted the sleep thing better for Christmas. We have a busy 2 days and I need her to get sleep so that I am not sitting in a separate room from everyone with a fussy screaming baby that needs to sleep.

No need to explain yourself. We all know you love your little girl as much as your heart will hold. As my mom used to say, "this too shall pass"...I promise. I'm sorry you're having a rough time.
