We finished! We've got a solid sleeper on our hands and in our lives again!
At first, Ellie needed to be constantly reminded to go to sleep so she could get a sticker added to her chart the next day.
Over time, we tried not to make as big of a deal on the chart as we didn't want her to be so completely dependent on this as motivation to get it together and go to bed.
And then, she has actually forgotten some mornings that she could put on a sticker. It has taken about 10 days for her to get through the last four or five squares because of this. And now, our lady has finally finished and can get the ICE CREAM treat that the last square held.
Way to go, Ellie! Way to go papa for this idea! Way to go mom and dad for getting our nap/bedtime sanity back!
