Tonight Declan fell asleep on my lap at 8:15pm. I held him on my lap until 9pm when I picked him up and took him off to bed. He opened his eyes for Daddy when he got kisses goodnight and he blinked slowly at me as I placed him in his crib but then right to slumberland.
Daddy was also in bed for 9pm and asleep by 9:30pm. I was watching a movie when at 11:40pm, quite unordinary, Declan started crying. I made a bottle in case he was hungry and proceeded to collect the little man from his bed. I brought him to the living room with me and cuddled him. He really wasn't hungry, less than an ounce he drank. He snuggled into me and just fell back asleep. I have to admit, I've never been so happy to have him wake up. It was the nicest thing to get in some extra cuddle time with my little man. I kept him here with me for 1/2 hour until the movie ended and then carried him back to bed. He didn't even blink an eye, fast asleep from my lap to his crib. I'll happily take in every extra moment. One day he'll be big and I know I'll wish I'd had just one minute more.
