Cold Turkey Update

Well, tonight was the test, and it was a loooonnng hour!  Caleb went to bed (the first time) around 6:45.  At about 7:00, I went up to get him and calmed him down (the first time).  After another ten minutes of crying, I went in and calmed him down again.  Then I decided to vacuum the house hoping the background noise of the vacuum would help Caleb go to sleep.  Nope!  When I stopped, he was still protesting loudly.  I went to get him and rocked him for a little while, but every time I tried to get him into bed, he screamed.  It was close to 7:45 by the time I finally laid a very drowsy and almost asleep Caleb in his bed and haven't heard from him since.  Whew!! Hope we don't have too many more nights like that!
