He did it!

Just an update on my post from yesterday- today Garrison put himself to sleep twice and all without crying!!!! YAY!!!! It wasnt anything I did, obviously, it was totally God.  I know that sounds cliche and very Sunday school- but it is so true.  He was only off by one minute when I checked after he went to sleep- I did a dance I was so excited!

Yes I am all about schedules, lists, and anything else that makes life more organized, even though I am somewhat "scatter brained".  For example, on our refrigerator you will find a list of Garrison's "Big Boy Rules", so anyone who every keeps Gar knows what we are working towards with him, a weekly schedule of cleaning for me, a calendar (complete with what Garrison will eat each day) and a copy of Garrison's schedule. Prob a little overboard, I know- but I LOVE IT!

I hate the thought of germs, being off schedule, and buying anything without a coupon. Seriously Type A I know. 

I am that mom you see at the grocery store, putting her child in the cart- only with a protective cover, and then wiping off the handle with a wipee.

Having a baby has only made it worse. Now that Gar is here I am even more nuts about scheduling things and being in control :(  The whole being in control thing is not one of my best qualities, but I'm working on it.  

**P.S. The picture is of Garrison right after he went to sleep. What a big boy!**

**P.S.S. Yes I know that my son is sleeping on a blanket and a mattress pad, with his legs sticking out of the end of the bed. Right before I put him down for a nap he was playing in his bed while I was putting up some clothes and he had the spit up of a lifetime.  The only way to describe it- amazing.  So I had to completely strip his bed and clean the wall.  I told Ryan that it would of been easier to just sale the house. He however did not agree.**
