Schedules… consistency…. you have heard it all before right!? Kids need it. They thrive off of this. Our lifestyle makes it a little challenging for us to stick to these things, but we try our best to give them a schedule, consistency, familiarity, etc. Living this gypsy life… traveling and moving ALL THE TIME makes this hard.
Let’s dive into sleep. You’ve heard it hear before, but our family likes their sleep. Kanon was a little more challenging to sleep train, and I want to blame it on the traveling a lot, but who knows. If anyone has dealt with a baby not wanting to sleep it can be so draining. I was always so nervous to go stay with my in laws or parents because no one likes a screaming baby in the middle of the night. It got to a point where he slept great at home, but then anywhere else we went or stayed there would be no sleeping. This just wasn’t going to work for us because hellllo!! We don’t roll like that.
You guysss!! I have solved the problem. I can not say enough good things about our new Dock a Tot Grand. I have talked about using the dock a Tot deluxe, but the grand saved me. No joke. The day I got this I used it at my parents… praying this would be a miracle, and sure enough it was!! The biggest test was leaving Kanon over night last night for the second time ever, and my mom said he didn’t make a peep. It gives him a sense of security and comfort, and is so amazing for all of our traveling.
Obviously I love this for sleep but it’s also so great for lounging around, reading books, and transitioning your littles to a bigger bed. I am obsessed. Dekker is three and also loves this for lounging around. To say I’m hooked on the Dock A Tot Grand is an understatement.
