They slept last night! Yay! There were a couple instances where Hailey woke up and needed changing, but aside from that all was well.
Tonight, I moved out into the hall. I was worried it might be traumatic for them for me to not be there, but Joseph was fully prepared to slam the door in my face and lock me out entirely. The boys were asleep in minutes and I barely had to say anything or sing anything to them. Hailey, on the other had, seemed to desperately want me there until she was asleep, screaming any time I moved out of her sight. This concerns me, as she was never the problem before. Hopefully she was just cranky and this is not a harbinger of things to come with her. It would really suck if we put all this work into helping the boys learn to sleep and she regressed into needing help. Eep!
