Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

Three months, Amy. We're trying to get her on a more regular nap/sleep schedule lately -- supposedly between two and four months is the best time to do that -- but it's hard!

Aw, it is hard. I remember it well. It definitely gets easier, though.

Yeah. Child sleep isn't some wonderful linear path to easiness. There are many lapses and difficulties.

It's got to, right? Good thing she's so stinkin' cute when she's not screaming her head off.

Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies.

Though it must be said that both of my kids, Emmett in particular, were extraordinarily poor sleepers.

It absolutely can. I had three kids, and they all fell into a schedule more or less easily by six months. But I was always really firm about them sleeping in their cribs and learning to fall asleep by themselves around eight or nine months. (And I say that because I figure with three I had more chance of having one bad sleeper, but who knows.)
