This is Bears at around 6pm on the day after the move. The whole process really tuckered him out.
Due to Biscuits not sleeping well, we decided to move into a 3 bedroom apartment a little over a week ago. In that amount of time, he's gone from waking up around 10 times a night to only once last night. The average lately hasn't been quite as amazing as last night but we haven't had more than 3 wakings per night since the first night here. Hooray! We definitely seem to be well on our way towards getting plenty of sleep around here. Poor little Biscuits just needed his own space.
Another bonus to this place is that we now have a little fenced yard for Lucy. Not so much a big deal pre-kids since she's always been good about staying close (so long as I pay attention to her) but lately I've been so distracted by the boys that I'll often completely forget about her. Not so good. Especially when it's time to come back inside and I forget entirely that Lucy was even out with us to begin with so she gets left outside until I hear her scratching on the outside door. I'm embarrassed to admit how many times I let this happen. So...I won't. In fact, I'm not officially admitting that it ever happened. I was just speaking hypothetically. And because of the hypothetical happenings I just described, it's very nice to have a fence.
In all the chaos of moving, Bears was super pumped because all the baby proofing of our last place was gone and with piles of boxes everywhere, he could now get into anything he pleased. He found a pretty gift box and decided to put a surprise in it for me.
He presented it to me with a very hopeful grin, obviously quite proud of himself:
(reenactment)
He told me that there was some tasty candy inside...
mmmm...delicious.
Well played, Bears, well played.
Later on, he gave me a terrible fright by dressing up as a LeprechaunKingShark:
Some pics of Biscuits and Daddy hanging out. I uh...can't think of how this ties in to the move. Except in the sense that they were moving at the time. And by that I mean that they weren't holding perfectly still.
That little guy certainly knows how to give a useful gift. What love.
ReplyDeleteAh, sooo awesome that you ate getting some decent sleep. Bears is so funny. And lol how biscuits and Ryan aren't holding perfectly still. I really like that top pic of Ryan and bears, very sweet.
ReplyDeleteha ha ha ha ha, what tasty candy you have there, bears!
ReplyDeleteblessed biscuits for sleeping better! hope you're getting settled in well enough and not living out of boxes. can't imagine attempting to pack AND unpack while raising two kiddos.
