Squirmy Wormy

I swear, sometimes this kid just won't sleep.

Yesterday, Luke got a few naps, but didn't sleep very long in either. When we finally settled in the hang out at night, he fell asleep for an hour, maybe a little longer. When he woke up, the fun began.

He just turned into this rocking, peek-a-boo playing, head butting, smiling, talkative ball of energy. I bounced him, I danced him, I played "So Big" with him. I did everything I could to tucker him out. Every time he'd fall asleep and I'd let him settle onto the bed, he'd be fine. Once I tried to move him to the crib, his eyes would shoot open and boom, I'd have to start all over again.

I finally got him to fall asleep for the night around 1 am. By that time, I was super sleepy so I just let him snuggle with me in the bed for the night. At 6:30, Luke starts flailing in his sleep, waking up, hitting my chest and pinching. He nursed, I got him a bottle, and by this time both hubby and I are awake.

And Luke is still asleep on the bed, snuggling with the cats.
