Coming soon: well rested parents

It's official - Ava is sleeping through the night!  For everyone who has known our sleep struggles, this is a MAJOR milestone.  Every night for the last week she has slept until 5 or 6 every morning, and this weekend she ate and went back to sleep until 7.  I don't know if this has anything to do with increasing her solid food intake, or if she was just ready to do it.  Her sleep has really just been like that: at 4 months, she decided she could go to sleep on her own at night, then shortly after she started taking naps on her own.  The lesson learned here is that Ava can do it, she just does it on her own time when she is ready.  I am so glad that we haven't pushed her or tried to make her do things that she was not ready to do, just because people said that she should be doing it.
