Brad and I feel duped by the sleep training info we found in the Baby 411 book. The book lead us to believe Luke would be sleeping through the night by the 4th night, however we've been following the Ferber method for 8 nights and he continues to wake up once, sometimes twice each night. I did some further research on this method and apparently it takes weeks, not days. I think the 411 book oversimplifies, or else we're just the exception for a lot of things. So, it's a good thing we started this during the holidays when it was easier to be up at night knowing we could sleep in a bit. We'll keep trying and hopefully it will work soon!
He continues to resist eating any solid food. We tried some rice cereal too to see if maybe he just didn't like the oatmeal, but he's still uninterested or cries when you try to put it in his mouth. We're going to give him a break and try again in a few days.
Other than that we've been enjoying the last of the holiday time together. It's been nice having Brad off work for a few days in a row and we've been able to take some nice walks and even get down to Lady Bird Lake. Here we are at Mt. Bonnell on New Year's Day.
