Big Move

We finally made the move.  We moved Huxley from his bassinet that's been sitting beside our bed for the past two and half months and moved him to his crib in his own room.  It was difficult moving him away from our bedside, but Huxley had grown too big for the bassinet. We even contemplated moving the crib into our room.  

Moving him ended up being the right move for all three of us.  After moving him to his crib, he immediately started sleeping longer stretches at night - 8 hours!!  

We have a really great monitor that ensures us he's still breathing.  If it doesn't detect movement for 10 seconds, it sets off an alarm.  That's a great comfort to us.  The sound comes through so clearly that we can even hear him breathing and cooing which is a very soothing sound to us.  

The first few nights without him next to us were hard, but getting an eight hour stretch of sleep is great.
