New Sleeping Style


Josie has always been one to love to sleep on her tummy. However, research says that infants now need to sleep on their backs. So, when Josie was itty-bitty we would fight with her to get her to sleep on her back and it was a lost battle most of the time. Brent or I would sleep on the couch for about the first month with her on our tummy to allow her to sleep on her tummy. Once, she started to get older she would sleep on her back. Well, once she started to roll over, she decided that she was a side sleeper and that is how she sleeps most of the time. No more sleeping on her back! We put her in bed on her back, but soon after when we go to check on her she is rested on her side. Well, the last few nights when I would go in to check on her I simply had to laugh. This is how I would find her. (see photo above) She would peacefully be rested on her tummy with her knees up to her chest and her little booty up in the air. I could not stop laughing. It is so cute! It is funny to put her in bed one way and perhaps find her in several different locations and positions when checking on her.
What gets me the most is in the mornings when I go to get her out of bed she is sitting up in her bed with a GIANT smile on her face. It is the best!
