The Boy (nearly) slept through the night!

For the first time in maybe ten months, or son slept through the night. Almost.

He only woke once, and it was around 05:00. I'm not sure what set him off, but he didn't seem to need his diaper changed (he sometimes gets through the night now without peeing in his diaper) and he went back to sleep fairly quickly with a pat on the back.

I'm sleeping in his room instead of Mari to get him weaned of night-time breast feeding. We're planning on getting him his own bed soon (not just a mattress on the floor) and hope that our current routine will lead to a stable situation where he learns to sleep through the night on his own.
