I miss having him so near in the bassinet, but he too was hitting his little head and feet on the walls and so it was time to move him to a larger bed. He was sleeping through the night anyway. I am glad God made him a boy who loves sleep, like his parents. My sweet baby boy sleeps through the night in his giant crib.

For the past three months, my two-year-old has been leaving her crib in the middle of the night -- a jail that was easy to escape for my miniature Houdini -- crawling into bed with me. I would lay in the dark, being kicked by little ones both inside and out, and wonder: a. Will I ever have 5 minutes when someone isn't touching Mom? b. Can I bottle up these moments and savor them again in 10 years? I am 35 weeks pregnant and as big as a dinosaur who just ate a mastodon.

I love to breathe them in. I know the day is coming all to quick when they won't want to snuggle with me. I love that every now and then my boys climb into bed with Hubs and I and want to snuggle.

I must say, a deal at only 25cents! My eight year old is a bit more pricey. After an evening of league volleyball, my tired (over 40) body came home and went to sleep. The next morning, I couldn't lift more sore arms over my head to change my pajamas. I considered cutting them off and in desperation asked my daughter to pull them over my head. She suggested "a buck" for her troubles! I so enjoyed this post. I must say, a deal at only 25cents! My eight year old is a bit more pricey.

Except she doesn't fall asleep, she gets so excited at the novelty that she wiggles and giggles and whispers, until after 45 minutes or so I tuck her back into her own bed. Mama does indeed need her sleep! ;-) I do enjoy the few times mine wants to snuggle (nightmars or power outages are about the only times now).

My little one didn't start sleeping through the night until he was 7 or 8 months, mostly because of my own resistance to letting him cry it out. He's 9 months now, so it wasn't that long ago. He usually sleeps for 11 or 12 hours, and I miss him while he's sleeping! So, before going to bed, I'll sneak into his room to check on my sleeping angel. I'll look at him and think about how much I love him and how I can't wait for the next opportunity to hold him. But if he moves at all I run out of there like I'm being chased. Mama needs her sleep.
