Sleeping with a newborn is always interesting, but Aviva’s been pretty good all in all – she’s been getting up just once during the night for a while now, and sometimes not at all – she definitely sleeps through the night fairly often; such a relief!
We transitioned her to her crib (out of the co-sleeper in our bedroom) a few weeks ago, in general, which went well; she never really complained about it much – which is a good thing; we’ve heard horror stories from other friends.
We are still swaddling Aviva, but more and more she’s “Houdini’d” herself, and gotten out of the swaddle (or straightjacket as some friends call it!) on a nightly basis. It’s actually pretty darn cute!
Due to the excessive heat of the last few days (hottest day ever in Seattle was Wednesday) – we all moved downstairs to sleep as it’s about 20 degrees cooler in the basement than in the bedrooms (as with most homes in Seattle, there’s no such thing as A/C at our place). Because of this, we put her back in the co-sleeper for sleeping, as it was easy to move to the basement.
Aviva took the opportunity for a new step; she’s rolled over each night and ended up sleeping, quite contently, on her tummy by the morning (we’ve been following every doctor’s recommendations and placing Aviva “Back To Sleep” exclusively). Given the head control she has, this is nothing to worry about, as she turns her head to make sure she can breathe quite fine. It will be interesting to see if this continues when we go back to the crib tonight; it’s possible the closeness of the co-sleeper walls is helping her bounce off of the walls to turn. Or more likely, as I like to think, she’s figuring out how to do this all on her own 
(This is likely true; my mom, who’s in town, just saw her turn onto her stomach all on her own without using the walls).
