Who Needs Sleep?

April 20th 2013 10:34pm,
Trying to escape bedtime!
Leon,
       Lately getting you to take a nap or go to bed at night has been fairly easy. Today was the exception as you wanted to stay awake no matter what! You, Daddy and I slept in this morning until 8:30am, which is probably what threw off your scheduel. At noon we took you over to Grandma's (Daddy's Mama) house so you could play while we went home and worked on cleaning out your soon to be sister's room. When we picked you up at 3pm we thought for sure you would fall asleep on the way home, but you had other plans. We tried everything to get you to fall asleep and take a good nap, but to no avail. Finally at 5pm, knowing that you really needed a nap, we put you in your stroller and went for a walk around the neighborhood. Within 15 minutes you were fast asleep! I only wish we would have done this sooner.
      Bedtime wasn't nearly as much of a struggle, but your sleeping scheduel was completely thrown off so bedtime came later than usual. After reading four books and singing "The Wheels On The Bus" (you make us sing that song every night) you snuggled up with Daddy and fell asleep without a fight. Now it is time for Mommy and Daddy to go to sleep, because we all have to be up early for church tomorrow. Sweet dreams Leon! I love you!
