The Sleeping Habits of a Little Man: BOO

January 26, 2010 By Lena

Just when you think you’re in a routine, and nothing can stop you – BAM! Your little one decides to throw you for a loop.

Of course, all the experienced parents are reading this, laughing, and saying, “Um, yeah, Lena, what did you expect?” Well, to put it mildly, I expected 7 freakin’ hours of uninterrupted sleep!

Oh my, mommies are testy when they’re thrown for a loop.

So for the past few days, Ryder has decided that he does not want to go to be a minute before 10pm (which is contrary to his usual 8:30pm bedtime), wakes up at least twice during the night wanting to “down” (go downstairs and play), “up” (be held in my arms), or “zee” (have a freezie) – AND, wakes up at the ungodly hour of 6:00am and demands milk, cheerios and a wide eyed, fresh faced mommy to skip along with him and start the day. Tra la la la la.

Well, there are three things I can do. I can cut down on his afternoon nap, so he feels tired sooner (wake up sweetie! um, now!), I can assuredly let him know in the middle of the night that it’s time to sleep (Freezie? Hell no! Go to sleep you sissy!), and I can do my best to start the day with him, ready for fun and adventure (he’s amusing himself with Mega Blocks while I blog this).

So in the time it would have taken me to post some hot deals, I’m ranting instead. Will. blog. later. today. Stay. tuned.
