Owen's New Bedtime Ritual

Owen has been really sweet lately. B has been working a ton, so he and have have been hanging out more. This is coupled with a big change in his bedtime routine. Where he used to need to be rocked asleep, in the last few weeks he's been unable to get to sleep through rocking. I've started putting him in his crib with some music on (a trick I picked up from his daycare) without any rocking. He still has a strong preference for having someone in the room until he falls asleep though. So I've been lying on the floor of his room until he falls asleep, then I sneak out. It's not perfect, and it's kind of hurting my back, but I like the idea that every night is an Owen and Dad slumber party in his mind.
