Dear Cadence,
Mommy was just wondering, what happened to my baby that liked to sleep? You wet to bed last night at 8pm, slept great for about an hour and then woke up screaming. Daddy tried to put you back to sleep, but he didn't have any luck, so you came out and sat on the couch with Momma. And for some reason you did a lot of crying, before you finally fell asleep.
Then Momma put you in your bed at around 1030pm and you slept until 1am, then it was time to wake up, or so you thought. Momma tried everything to get you back to sleep, with no luck! We sat in the living room and watched cartoons from 2am until 530am.
By 530am we were both falling asleep on the couch, so we went back to bed. Momma brought you into bed with her and at last we went to sleep. But it was short lived! By just after 7am you were wide awake again. Thus leading us to get up.
You are currently playing with your toys and talking away, and Momma is fighting to keep her eyes open. Nap time can't come soon enough!!!
So my question is.... WHERE DID MY BABY THAT LIKES TO SLEEP GO?? You never sleep right through the night (well we have had 4 nights that you slept through) but you usually sleep pretty good. So whats going on with you my dear? The past few weeks have been late nights and early mornings, mixed with 2-3 wake ups throughout the night. Mommy really hopes that this is just a phase, that will end soon! Mommy is so tired! I love you baby girl, please please please start sleeping better for me!
Love Momma

Totally a phase and it too will pass...promise. Alexys did the same thing around this age. I think it's because she's learning something new (how to crawl) and her mind is working far beyond her waking hours and she literally can't sleep. I've read that in places and it makes sense.
