So I got Luke to sleep around 9:30 last night. Father in law called downstairs to chat, so I brought sleeping baby upstairs so FIL could say goodnight. It was easy enough to encourage the little guy to go back to sleep and everything seemed peachy keen.
We live near a volunteer fire company and the sirens are incredibly loud. The in laws have never trained the dogs not to bark and howl when the sirens go off, so when they sounded at 11pm last night, the dogs started freaking out. I ran upstairs to calm them down but the damage was done. Luke was awake and refusing to go back to sleep. At midnight, kiddo was still awake and doing everything in his power to remain so. Hubby fell asleep and I had to fight consciousness in the dark while I waited for Luke to find his happy place.
Sometime around 1am, I was finally able to put the baby in the crib. I had to cover his ears at one point because the dogs started barking AGAIN, but luckily he slept through it all. I'm so tired.
