i love our mommy-harper time when serena is napping. she is seriously a JOY. such a happy and sweet little thing. every time you look at her she grins from ear to ear. looooove her.
on a side note, last night serena threw a crazy fit in the middle of the night and cried and cried and CRIED every time we put her in her back into bed and left the room. we comforted her, held her, loved her, and couldn't find anything wrong with her. after this went on for over an hour we put her in bed, shut the door, and left. she continued to cry and call for daddy, so i shut our door, turned on our bathroom fan, and slept peacefully until 8:30.
i'm not opposed to her coming and laying in our bed for awhile if she will LAY THERE AND SLEEP. every time we let her, she giggles, smacks us in the face, pulls my hair and just goofs off. so i'm done with that.
is that bad? i'm sure harper woke up sometime and wanted to eat, but she didn't resent us in the morning or anything.
{i hope my mom doesn't read this. i'm pretty sure her heart would break knowing that serena was crying all alone in her room for who knows how long...}

mya does that all the time. i think its an age thing. we were worried why mya woke up in the middle of the night screaming as if she was dying! ...... and then yesterday when it happened again....... and then got a fever of 103.4.. we took her in. and she had a secret ear infection. ahh. so im hoping that was the problem and we will all start sleeping soundly again.
ps. harper is soooo pretty!
I would have probably done the same thing. I don't think that is bad at all, because you couldn't find anything wrong that you could fix. And even your baby lived through it! :) They say, medically & physically that babies don't need food in the night after 4 months old. So, you're all good!
By the way, your Harper is darling.
Not that my doing it makes it a good thing to do - but I've done it. Poor girl, it's heartbreaking, but I also think it's empowering (for her) because maybe she learned that she can calm herself down? I like to tell myself stuff like that anyway. So if you're looking for approval you have it, and if you're looking for sympathy, you have that too. Because crying babies (no matter how old) make my heart hurt.
