I have just spent an hour with the toddler on the bed, and now Dad is trying some more. Another hour has passed already, and we are still hearing the giggle from the bedroom...
Sleep stays an “adventure” every night! Sometime she announces that she is going to bed, and we have to move to walk with her up the steps. Even when it is before her bed time. We do try to keep to the bed times! Sometimes she asks for “booby” and falls asleep on the breast. And it’s easy...
But sometimes we get nights, like tonight, where nothing helps! Especially when we have decided to drink that second glass of wine... Murphy does keep his ears wide open, you know!
Nowadays she also wakes up with a scream when she sees we are not sleeping next to her!
Sorry, have to go make a bottle... Dad has just sent me a sms from the bedroom.
Fifty minutes later, but Little Miss and Dad are finally down for the night. I had to lie down as well. Yawn!
Who says that sleeping with the toddler is not a fun adventure? (Sarcastic smile)
Now all that’s left is get myself off to bed...
Good night!

Kiara went through a stage like this - drove me nuts!
ReplyDeleteShe also didnt like it if we fell asleep with her but then didnt stay there!
My oudste seun het ook gesukkel om te slaap in die aand en ek moes tot laat by hom sit en sy hand vashou ... en bewaar my siel as ek sy hand los!
ReplyDeleteSterkte vir julle!
