Sleepy Boy<\/em><\/p>\n

Carson fell asleep on the couch this afternoon a little before 1. \u00a0He usually goes down for a nap around 2, so I was surprised to look up from changing Betsy’s diaper and clothes and see him in this position. \u00a0I picked him up, carried him upstairs and put him in his bed. \u00a0I don’t think he opened his eyes even once. \u00a0After about 15 minutes it was Betsy’s turn. \u00a0I got her in bed, she played around for a little while and fell asleep. \u00a0I fixed myself a little lunch and sat down on the couch. \u00a0I started thinking through what I needed to get done during my alone time. \u00a0Then Carson starts screaming like crazy. \u00a0I go upstairs, try to calm him down, try to read a book, try to lay down with him and nothing helps. \u00a0So I take him downstairs, get him a snack and then come to terms with the fact that I have lost the only time of the day that I would’ve had to myself.<\/p>\n

Some of my favorite Carson things from today.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. I wake this morning to banging sounds and know that Carson is up and has gotten out of bed. \u00a0So I head up to get him and there he is at the top of the stairs. \u00a0He says, “Hi Mom!”. \u00a0So now I know that he can open his bedroom door and now I need to make sure the gate at the top of the stairs needs to be closed each evening.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Carson was playing a game on the iPad called More Tart. \u00a0You add toppings to a tart shell and then eat it. \u00a0It’s silly. \u00a0But the toppings all look very real. \u00a0Carson had put a bunch of strawberry slices on the tart. \u00a0He brings the iPad to me and says, “Stawbees. \u00a0Want some stawbees.” \u00a0He then tries to pick one up and put it in his mouth. \u00a0He gets a little disappointed that there is nothing in his mouth. \u00a0Now, that is realistic.<\/li>\n
  3. On the couch this afternoon he leans in and pats me on the shoulder and says, “Good dog.” \u00a0Not sure what to think about this.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Betsy was hard today. \u00a0She took one good nap this morning and everything else was short and difficult. \u00a0I put her down for the night at 6 and she didn’t fall asleep until 9 after many trips up to her room by both of us. \u00a0At one point tonight Ben said, “It’s just not\u00a0supposed\u00a0to be easy right now.” \u00a0And he is exactly right. \u00a0I know we’re learning through this experience and we’ll be better for it when it’s over.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
