Could This be the Beginnings of a Schedule?

I know, I know, shhh! Don't jinx it. But the little man has been on the same eating schedule for the past 4 days now. He wakes up and eats every 3 hours until 8 pm, then goes to sleep around 9 pm and eats every 4 hours or so throughout the night.

I'm adding a new twist today. Yesterday he slept in his crib from about noonish to 2 pm! I've made it my goal to try to get him to nap at least once a day in his crib. For the time being, I have no expectations on how long or which nap it is. But as a coincidence, he is down for a nap again today at noon in his crib. We were running errands this morning, so he's only had catnaps in his carseat up until now, so maybe this will be a longer nap.

I don't want to force a schedule or routine on him - I know he is way to young for that. But if he seems to fall into one on his own, I'm more than willing to go along with it!

You will be very lucky if that's a schedule. CJ usually eats around the same times but sleep...no schedule there except his night feedings (10,2 & 5:30).
