Trying to Wean Baby #1 Off Noise

I am going to try to wean Baby #1 off of the white noise that I so desperately depended on when she would not sleep. Why change a good thing? Well, I am hoping that she will be able to sleep in other peoples' houses and my grandparents house when we go over to visit and it gets late. So far, Baby #1 has had horrible experiences staying out late because she refuses to sleep when it's her bedtime (7pm). I think one of the problems is, is that we have her trained in her crib and with the white noise. Don't get me wrong, I'd rather have a sleeping baby on a routine rather than to have a baby that NEVER sleeps through the night or take naps during the day, but it's got me thinking that perhaps she can be trained to sleep without the comforts of home sometimes.

I will give it a try now.

Also, I'd like to report that Baby#1 can fully turn over from her back to her belly and from belly to back. She also can hold her bottle when given formula. Eating solids is also going well. She's had rice and oat cereal, carrots, sweet potato, parsnip, peas, and butternut squash. I went out to buy another case of Baby Cubes to start her on fruit next week. I am excited to try her in the swimming pool too! I bought a pair of Tushies swimming pants. Just need to get a t-shirt her for top and we should be ready to give swimming a try.
