Dear Greyson,
I love bedtime. I love it when you are snuggly. I love it when you are taking your bottle and can barely keep your eyes open. You are so sweet at bedtime. We have a pretty set routine for bedtime. Somedays it goes off without a hitch, other days we aren't so lucky. Regardless of the outcome, I look forward to bedtime and this usually quiet time together. At around 7:30 we make a bottle, where you, me and Dada head to the bedroom. We lay you down on the bed, usually propped up on a pillow and Dada and I lay on either side of you. You hold your bottle and Dada and I talk to you, rub your forehead, play with your hair, sometimes rub purple blankie on your face and kiss you. When your bottle is gone we give you your bink and one of us picks you up. We rock your for a minute or two, kiss your face and then lay you down. You like to fall asleep on your side, so we lay you down that way and give you one of your stuffed animals. Lately it's been your alligator, which is almost as big as you are! You wrap yourself around his and we cover you up with purple blankie. Then Dada and I bolt for the door.
We can usually tell when you are sleepy. You yawn really big, and you are NOT quiet when you yawn. You actually have started yelling while you are yawning! You also rub your eyes a lot and get a bit snuggly. When you are laying down and sleepy you pull/play with your hair. This isn't easy to do because of your helmet, but you make do!
At dinner tonight I could not get over how much you ate! You had a crazy amount of chicken and peas. I didn't think you were ever going to finish. You just kept going and going! A lot of times you drop a lot of food or throw some of it on the floor for Milo. Not this time though! Not a lot was wasted and poor Milo had very little to clean up. You must be growing!
I love you buddy! Forever and longer!
Love Mama
