After three successful days of sweet potato, we were on to peas...which didn't go quite as well. I'm hoping it was just that his appetite was down due to his shots...but he just didn't want to eat as much as he usually eats. And I tasted the peas...they taste like mashed up peas...which isn't very ono...
We'll try peas for two more days, then move to carrots. He should have some interesting colored doodoos for the next couple days.
So we tried our bedtime routine...bocha'd him, put on the lullaby music, fed him, put him on the bed in his room with us...and he cried...and cried. So we picked him up...and he cried, and cried. Took him out to the living room...he calmed down. Put him on OUR bed with us lying down next to him...bruddah was out in like ten minutes...with NO help from us. He turned his head this way and that...scratched his fingernails on the sheets...scooted down a foot or so...the knocked out. What the heck??? After about 2o minutes (he was deeply sleeping by then...snoring), Dave carried him from our bed to his crib. He's now been in his crib for about 3o minutes...so Dave and I are going to brush our teeth and get our butts in bed cuz we know he's going to wake up and need to eat sometime soon.

You gotta do what you gotta do for your mental health. Although Kawai slept in her crib from the start, it was harder for us with Kahia. When he was 9 months, we did the CIO, but it took three days for him to finally get it.
Maybe both you guys and Caleb aren't ready yet. Don't worry. When you guys are ready, it'll happen.
It's summer. You just gotta get the routine set before school. Enjoy him and just remember, you know him best.
