Well, Darian put himself to sleep the other night. For all who said it couldn’t happen, or he would never be ready on his own, and I would need to “train” him…:P nanny nanny, he did it. He just rolled over and closed his eyes and went to sleep. I didn’t pat him or sing to him or anything, because I wanted to make sure he was going to do it on his own. 
YAY!
So now of course I’m feeling totally vindicated with our choices to not force him into his own bed to fall asleep on his own. He’ll get there…when he’s ready!!!
On Sunday Tony and I were baptized. Marc got tears in his eyes when he introduced me. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him cry…so I started crying! LOL So far it has been wonderful. We are reading the Bible every morning and starting the day with prayer.
Darian wants a nap so I need to go. I will update more later!

Rachel! I’m so happy you are baptized and having the Lord in you life!!! That’s fabulous!! And how awesome of Darian - putting himself to sleep! I admire your parenting style very much. I started a blog of my twin pregnancy…..but not sure how often I’ll post as I just don’t have/make the time these days. Call me soon though so we can visit - I’d love to meet in person!!!!!!!!! *hugs!* Stacy (from March Mommies!!!)

Rachel,
I’m glad you didn’t let anyone get to you w/ their comments and “advice” … that’s so great that D put himself to sleep! Ryan will occasionally put himself to sleep as well, and Lucas was just a little older when he began to put himself to sleep regularly!
