So after that lovely night of waking up 5 times (in which the 4th time Shane said "Oh, is this his first time waking up!?") Shane and I both agreed that even though Oliver sleeps in a crib right next to us that we would just let him cry it out over the weekend whenever he got up. So two nights ago Oliver fell asleep great and then got up at 1230 and cried like crazy for 5 minutes while I was laying in bed trying not to move, hoping he couldn't see me. Eventually, though, he went to sleep and didn't get up until 530. Last night when I put him to bed he whimpered twice and fell asleep and didn't get up again until 5!!! It was lovely! Of course, I'm sure he will get a cold, or a tooth, or something that will make him stay up all night now, but for the time being WE DID IT!!!
