Landon just might be recovered from the cousins' visit!! YAYAY Yesterday he napped for 3 hours, and last night he went to sleep at his usual 11:30 (!! - I know ... he was in bed by 10 though!! argh). This morning he woke up on his own at about 9:40, which is a BIG improvement over us dragging his very sleepy-head out of bed at 10 only to have him whining and crying for the next hour! lol And this afternoon, for the first time in a week, he went down for his nap nicely -- one story, close the door, and off to dreamland. No standing there reminding him to close his eyes, to lay down, to take nice deep breaths, etc. Finally! Hopefully he's caught up on his sleep now and our lives will be a bit easier with him.
Of course Arlan is a little gas-monkey, waking me up all night long and having a hard time napping during the day. He's out right now, in his car seat downstairs because I didn't think he was going down for a big long nap yet! He slept through the USC rep coming to get his RESP signed up and everything! Now if he'd just sleep a bit better at night without having to poop all night long! Poor kid ... and poor mommy :-/
Last night I was in Landon's room 'helping' him to fall asleep (see above ... deep breaths, closed eyes, nice and relaxed, lay quietly, no kicking the walls, shhhhhh, deep breaths, closed eyes..........). John went down to prepare coffee for this morning, and he was grinding coffee beans. There's Landon, laying nice and quiet, eyes closed, nice deep breaths, whispering to me "that's the coffee grinder making noise, mommy. mommy, that's the coffee grinder!!" What a kid ... doesn't miss much. Made me laugh though, which is good. As long as I can still laugh at the little bugger, life is fine.
That's my 'report' for today -- until next time....
