Tonight Jaymes & I decided it best to put Ayden to sleep in our bed with us. He's super congested for whatever reason, and I didn't want him getting worked up over being put in his crib (like he has in recent days) and then not being able to sleep because of even worse congestion!
Long story short: We laid down with him after reading his bed time stories, turned out the lights, prayed, and turned on the sound machine. During nap today I used the same method (sleep with mommy) for the same reason and it worked in about 30 seconds! Tonight, Jaymes fell asleep about 30 seconds in, I pretended to be asleep so Ayden would stop talking, and Ayden kept turning from Jaymes to me, smiling up a storm because he was in-between his two most favorite people at bed time!! :) After awhile I thought he was about to drift off but instead he started pointing to my nose, teeth, lips, and eyes.. and smiling as if to think "she has no idea I'm doing this.. mwuahaha!" Little did he know I could see it all through a little crack in my eye. It was precious, it's a memory I don't want to forget.. the simple things in life that make us most happy!!
We had to put him in his crib because he just wouldn't fall asleep after all, but he's going down peacefully so far!
I LOVE THAT BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
