Bedtime

For seven and a half months now Zach has enjoyed sharing our bed. At first it was all the time because that is what it took to get him to sleep. Now that he's older he sleeps in his own bed at night. Mom lets him snuggle with her in bed for an hour or two every morning and Dad puts him down for a nap in our bed during the day. Once he started rolling around with ease, Dad placed pillows around him for safety, which worked for two months. But today, the inevitable happened....he fell out of bed while trying to take a nap. He was a little surprised at the time, but he doesn't seem to be worse for the wear. We, however, feel like awful parents and may be scarred for life. Welcome to parenthood. We're fast learners, though. From now on Zach only sleeps in the safety of his own bed. Except for the early morning snuggle time with Mom!



Zach doesn't always choose the most comfortable position for a nap but as long as his mouth finds his thumb he's happy.



Oh, Mom, do we have to get up and take you to work?



Wiggle time before bedtime!
