a night time story for daddy

we thought after your long night of travel last night you could use a little help getting to sleep tonight....... we love you and miss you daddy!

No sleeping at the table!

So we normally have a huge issue getting this kid to go down for naps or bedtime. Lately he goes down really easy at the dinner table! Is there a such thing as counting chicken nuggets instead of sheep? He is eating one minute and out the next! 15 to 20 minutes pass and then presto he is awake and just starts eating again like he never fell asleep! Sweet dreams little man!

3:00 am driving...... who needs sleep?

Last night was a rough night for our little man, well for all of us. After numerous wakings and going back to sleep for 20 to 30 minute intervals at 2:15 there was no going back to sleep, after trying everything from changing the diaper to mylicom, motrin (he's cutting a 2nd molar), to a bottle, endless rocking and watching music videos, I finally resorted to the car, just to stop the crying. It worked, we drove for about 30 minutes when I looked back and realized that the endless chatter from my son was a sign he was not going to go to sleep driving I relented and went home who can afford to drive any longer with no results!. After two episodes of Scrubs we were finally out again, never mind it was 4:00 am. Do the sleepless nights ever end????
