asleep with my eyes open



maybe it's just me, but bedtime can be a tricky time at our house. especially when there's only one parent home. who do you put to bed first? what does the other child do in the meantime. often for otto, this means he lays and cries for a few minutes while we go through the bedtime routine with greta. tonight, however, otto got tired of waiting. while i was upstairs with greta, otto rolled over onto his belly (his sleep position of choice), found his thumb to suck on, and promptly fell asleep. i know his eyes look open, but trust me, he was sleeping.
our children do not fall asleep just anywhere. i remember almost passing out the ONE TIME greta fell asleep in a bouncy seat at a playdate.

way to go otto. thanks for making bedtime a little easier tonight. except for the fact that you still needed to nurse one more time.
