transition

This has been a week of change. Last Sunday was the night before my first day of work and when we decided to transition Jackson to the crib. He has been sleeping in a co-sleeper right next to my side of the bed since coming home. It has been wonderful having him at arm's reach this whole time. I couldn't imagine him sleeping in another room all by himself. And couldn't understand why we would want him to. But then the window came where it seemed the right thing to do. So we put him to bed in his crib and the first night he fussed from midnight to 2am. And that has been the worst of it. And I have to say that it has been kind of exciting to have a nightstand and a lamp again! I have even read a few pages of my book before going to bed. But this transition hasn't been without a little separation anxiety. The worst of it was last Sunday. And there is still some lingering since I am working tomorrow and the next day from 9am to 6pm. But Jackson will be in very good hands, with his Papa, so I have nothing to worry about. But I sure am going to miss him.
