Nope it's not torture!

This is such a sad picture of Hayden, but it's almost funny at the same time. Hayden had been having trouble not wanting to sleep with us in the middle of the night (ok actually we were having trouble not wanting to get up a million times) so after one too many nights of sharing our bed we went to battle with the sleep training. He actually did really well with it and only took a couple nights for him to get the hint that he's fine and just needs to go back to sleep. So initially I put him to bed and anywhere between 1 and 4 would wake up crying. We take turns on who goes downstairs each night just to make sure he doesn't have any arms or legs stuck or hasn't leaked through his diaper. Then we give him a hug and lay him back down and go back upstairs. This is where the fun begins. When this picture was taken he cried for about 5 minutes or so and then we heard nothing. Josh went down to make sure he was ok and just kind of peeked through his door and found him asleep sitting up. Poor Hayden just sat down and fell asleep. Since this picture was taken he now lays back down and falls asleep and all is back to normal with sleeping.
