Yesterday Lucas took his usual two thirty minute naps at the Carriage House. Everyone jokes that you can set your watch by how long he sleeps and it is true. Marc actually timed Lucas' naps this past weekend.
We went to visit with Marc's parents and grandmother last night and he was very active-we thought he would take his bottle when we got home and fall asleep.
Once again, Lucas proved that he is really in charge. We fed him and waited. Surely he would start to moan and rub his eyes-signs he is ready to sleep. Nope. What we got instead was a baby that figured out he could play with a bead filled triangle AND a block at the same time, waving both in his hands, almost hitting Marc in the face.
So then we thought, we will put him upstairs in our bed. That will do the trick. Lucas only seemed to become more awake and spent a good 30 minutes talking and laughing so hard I thought he was going to get the hiccups. Granted, I was so amused (and maybe tired) by his antics that I started to laugh too and that only got him going more. I haven't seem him so awake, it was like he drank Red Bull for babies. Finally, a little after 10pm he fell asleep. He is normally asleep by 8:30pm most nights.
You would think that all his activities and going to bed later he would have slept through the night. Not a chance. Lucas got up about 3 times (again, not something he normally does). When he woke up at 4:30am, Marc decided to feed him. Even with a full stomach, Lucas was up talking and laughing this morning at 6:25am.
Everyone in our house should be ready for bed by 7pm tonight.
