Now that we're home from our holiday travels and with the new year in full swing, we're working on getting our night routine refined a bit. Reid goes down at 7:30, and Luke hits the hay at 8:30. Sweet dreams from there, right? Some nights -- yes. Last night -- no. But the conversation was priceless.
At 2 a.m. Luke was up for his middle-of-the-night restroom visit and afterward wanted to climb in bed with Mom & Dad. He was pretty persistent and wouldn't let the two letters of "NO!" stand in his way ... but he figured we meant business when we pulled out "go back to bed or we'll take away your new Lego toy." Beeline to bed. No further questions. Peaceful sleep and back to counting sheep for us all.
Until 5:45 this morning. Reid's vocabulary is still evolving, but he's using his words wisely. Our alarm clock this morning was this (repeated over and over for emphasis): "Dada. All done. DADA. ALL DONE!" He usually says "all done" when he's finished eating, but guess he figured out it can apply to sleeping, too!
