sleeping '09

we've been experiencing some quite good sleeping from percy so far this year. (i realise by figuratively saying this out loud i've now jinxed it all to hell!) except when she was ill a couple of weeks back she's either been sleeping thru the nite or only requiring one, occasionally two visits, thru the nite to have a drink of water and to pull her blanket up. these visits are generally over in a matter of minutes as she doesn't need us to sit with her until she's dozed off fully.
the last two mornings i've even had to go into her after 7am to wake her so that we can all get to day care and work on time! hopefully we can convince her to sleep past 7am on weekends from now on too.
in the mornings percy often wakes with a dry nappy. we'll take her jamies off and the old but dry nappy and ask if she wants to sit on the potty. which she generally does, followed by a big pee that then gets tipped in the big toilet and flushed away. i'm hopeful this action is a good indication that toilet training will be a success when we eventually decide to tackle it. while she can tell us when she's pooing it's usually right now, too late to take clothes off and get the potty to her or her to the potty, she seems to pee without informing anyone. i can't tell by looking at her if she is. anyways, not an issue yet.
bring on lots of hours of uninterrupted sleep before august!
