Sleeping

Well, Odin has been sleeping on his own the last two nights. It's been working great; the first time we put him down he cries for an hour, and the second time (after he gets up in the middle of the night to eat) he only cries for a few minutes. We've eliminated all his nighttime feedings except for one, and that one is almost gone too.

So, a few days ago some guy in our apartment complex just walked up to us and gave us a beanie baby. He said he works for Ty and he gets boxes of them all the time, and he'd been meaning to give it to us since we had Odin. It was a little horse and we've been using it as Odin's comfort object instead of Alyssa. The funny thing is, in mythology, Odin had a horse named Sleipnir, which sounds like "sleep near."
