Oh Sully, Sully, Sully. You are so stubborn. And cute. And cuddly.
The teachers at daycare were telling me the other day how Sully has a lot of the staff wrapped around his little finger. Megan and K.C. are the main people that work in the baby room and they were telling me all about it. And I think I have ruined him...not for life or anything but temporarily. I can not for the life of me get him to sleep in his crib longer than a half hour. I have tried to let him cry it out, but he just keeps crying. Doesn't matter if I am leaning over the crib, putting my hand on him or talking to him - he just wants to be picked up. I feel like I would have to let him cry it out for hours and then maybe he would be so exhausted he would fall asleep. The longest i have let him cry it out has been 45 minutes I think. And it took me another 15 minutes to calm him down after i picked him up. He gets so worked up. So I either have to do this sleep training thing really slowly or I go all out and let him cry it out for hours. I think that latter idea though would break his little spirit. Plus Z will be working long hours again, so doing this on my own does not sounds fun.
Sully also refuses to drink formula. Even if a little is mixed in with the breast milk he refuses it. The funny part is he gets mad about it too. He doesn't like to be fooled with.
So spoiled this one!
