So, I think that Lukin's schedule is all thrown off because Amanda is staying with us. It can be 7:30 pm, and he is in no way, shape, or form, ready for bed because, nigh-nigh time is just him and me and having another person there throws him off. So, finally, I took him downstairs and put him to bed, but this didn't work. He just cried and cried. So then I went upstairs, and Amanda made him another bottle and he sucked that puppy down and then we rock-a-byed with the Winnie the Pooh blankey. But that still wasn't really working, he was getting tired but he wouldn't cave, so finally I started to sing 'Jesus Loves Me' and within 5 minutes, he was sleepy-nigh-nigh.
I don't know if it makes me a bad mom, but I appreciate when he goes to sleep so I can have a little down time by myself before I go to bed. I don't know why, but I need at least one hour where I am not at work and not being mom to just unwind.
So the newest thing that Lukin has learned is how to clap. It is so cute. If you clap your hands like three times for him. He will smile really big and he will clap three times. It's so cute. But it's more like he holds one hand still and brings the other to it. It's so amazing what he learns how to do everyday. I was like, "it seems like just yesterday when you didn't know how to clap." Amanda replied, on Lukin's behalf, "It was."
More info as I think of it...
