Up and About

My son has been sleeping with us in our bed since his granpa arrived and took over his room. So for over a week now, little tot's sleeping pattern is quite disrupted. On Tuesday night I put him in bed with dada, did the usual ritual - read and pray, then I went down to clean up. I was going to have a playdate in my place the following morning so I cleaned some and prepped some food already. But at around 10:15pm I heard pitter patter upstairs that seemed to be going down the stairs. And to my surprise little tot was all smiling greeted me "Hello mama!" He was up and about, without any trace that he might have just been rosen up from sleep. Since I was not done cleaning up yet, I carried him back to our bed and said goodnight again. And about 15 minutes later, he was down again and darted towards his toys and played. After several times of going back and forth, I gave up. At about 12 midnight, I just inflated the aerobed in the study room, laid down with him and read another story. And soon enough he dozed off finally. I didn't bother to move him back to our bed anymore, we both just slept for the night in the study room.
