Summer came back, again and again! We had a beautiful summer in the end, with lots of gorgeous weather and hot temperatures. We beat the heat by eating ice cream, going to the beach, and running around the park sprinklers! It was so hot, we are actually ready for fall...

Speaking of rest! Drumroll please..............he's sleeping!!!!! He is putting himself to bed and sleeping through the night. It is totally amazing. It used to take us every means possible to get him to sleep and then he would wake sometimes every 15 minutes up to every couple hours, through his second birthday. I talked to our doctor, no help, and read four different sleep help books cover to cover, which helped some and then would stop working. I guess the fifth one is a charm? The last one I got on a whim and it worked! I don't know if he was just ready this time, but dear dinos we were! Catching up on sleep is funny. It's like now I get enough sleep to realize what a stupor I was in and how very tired I am now!
