One of my biggest concerns of the 3 kids transition was bedtime. I was sure it would be more difficult. I was wrong. The more cranky or sad Wade is, the faster the girls fall asleep. I don't understand it. I'll be trying to hold/read a book in my right hand and holding/bouncing Wade in my left and the girls fall asleep. It's great.
Today Bryn almost instantaneously fell asleep with Wade crying. I 'tried' to read Elle 'Beauty and The Beast', but eventually looked over at her, and she was totally out. My advice to you: If you're having troubles getting your kids to sleep, put a crying baby in the room(you can borrow one of mine). Your kids will be asleep in minutes.

That is very exciting, one less thing to worry about when the next one comes. I am pretty much worried about everything to do with having more then one child. I want lots of them, but I have no idea how I am going to do it. I guess that is why they come one at a time. Feel free to post things like this as often as you like. :) You have such a beautiful family and congrats on the big move!
That's great Jo! I find that Hadley's good at going to sleep too if I need to help a baby. Interesting...
interesting!
While my girls don't necessarily fall asleep when the baby needs me I do find that the baby's cry is sort of a lullaby. Its like the best white noise around. Glad your girls are doing so well.
thats pretty funny jodie! You should write a book about" how crying babies help older siblings sleep"... lol
