Sleepy time

As a first time mommy i was petrified that i would be walking around like a zombie. But i was blessed with not only the modt beautigul little boy but also good sleeping routines.
Since Hudson was a tiny baby he always fed every 4 hours and slept 4-5 hours at night. 
Since about 6 weeks old Hudson sleep 5and a half to 6 hours at night.  I have been very grateful. 
Since Hudson turned 10 weeks old, every now and again he would sleep from 10pm till after 5:00am.  Some nights he would wake up st 3:00 and i would jyst put his bottle in his mouth and a few minutes later he would be sleeping again.
But wait it gets better...
When Hudson turned 11 weeks old i decided to bath, feed and put him down by 19:00 - 20:00pm and not wake him for the 11pm feed.  He suprised up and slept a full 10hours.  He woke up around 3:00-4:00 but i just put his dummy back in and he went right back to dreamland.
My boy now has a bath around 7pm, a bottle, cuddle and goes down in his own cot by 20:00 - 20:15 and sleeps till about 5:30 - 6:00.  On the odd occasion he will move around and i will put his dummy in his mouth. 
This morning he suprised us and only woke up at 6:20.
Such a good boy with very proud parents.
We will be sticking to our routine and parenting, we must be doing something right.  
Everyone says that his routine will change and he will not sleep thru.  But i have faith in my little boy. 
He just needs to know mommy and daddy isn't going anywhere and we always by his side.
Will keep you updated on his routine if it changes.
Xoxo
