Adelynn's Journey: Hooray~

Hooray~

Zac put Addie down in bed tonight and she was wide awake. Turned on her music thing and left the room....she was quiet for 10 min. or so and then cried for about 5 min., maybe even less than that....and......she is ASLEEP!

She might be worn out since she got to bed later than normal and she got her RSV injection today, but I'm counting this as a success! We'll see how tomorrow goes! This could be huge!
