Tough Love

Ok so Dennis and I have been completely SPOILED with Mae. That is until about 2 weeks ago when she decided after 6 weeks of sleeping through the night not to do that anymore. We have tried just about everything we can think of to get this girl to stay asleep. Everything except for the dreaded "tough love" approach. All parents know what this is, right? I am talking about ignoring and letting Mae cry it out. We began the process last night.
I don't know who this was tougher on?
Mae

Mom

or Dad.

Sidenote: HAHA! I am beside myself on laughter with these pictures of Den and me. We posed this morning for these. They are the worse pictures ever taken in the history of this world but don't you think it gets the message across on how we feel?!

So Mae starts out crying at 3:30. Mary tells Dennis not to get out of bed and to let the girl cry. This goes on for 30 minutes and then Mae is WIDE AWAKE. Crying starts over.

Finally at about 5:00 goal achieved.

Will the fun ever end?? Wish us lots of luck tonight. This "tough love" business is TOUGH.
