Night Night, Mommy

Austin had one of those no-thanks-I'll-do-it-myself-Mommy kind of nights.  He just wouldn't fall asleep while I was rocking him.  He was very calm and content...but awake.  I put him in the crib.  He looked at me and sighed.  A few minutes later I watched him (on the monitor) roll over onto his left side and go to sleep.  I'm so thankful that he can put himself to sleep, but I treasure those quiet moments at night watching him sleep in my arms.  And I find it bittersweet that my little boy is big and coordinated enough to sleep on his side.
