Thank you!

I didn't get a chance to respond personally to the replies on my last two posts.... I am sorry.

All I can say as a (lame) excuse is that this Holiday Season, Work (this is our busy time) and Cooper teething is sucking all my time!

I read all the posts on my cell phone - in my stolen alone moments (bathroom) - but can't easily respond on with the phone. 

I am not going to stress about the sleeping -- as several of you suggested enjoy the cuddle time with him now.  It'll be gone soon enough. When the time comes I will use the other suggestions - easing down the amount in the bottle, etc. 

And thanks for the funny stories about diaper changing -- the turtle shell story is my favorite!  (That and giving your kid the cell phone to play with -- Cooper LOVES my cell phone and the remote!) 

So THANK YOU ALL !
