Oh dear! These days it takes FOREVER to put Asger to bed. Take yesterday for example: After dinner we gave Asger and Nora a bath, they love to take a bath together, so sweet. After bath time we put on pyjamas, play in the room and red books, sing songs and so on. Around 7.30pm I put him to bed and sing a few more songs. Alright, ready to say good night. He didn't fall asleep until 9.30pm!
After we said good night for the first time he jumped out of bed and came into the living room a million times. I walk him back to bed, not much interaction, say good night and I leave the room. But he doesn't care, he just keeps coming back.
But then he is also very funny actually. Every time he comes out into the living room he brings a new toy! A book, a doll, a dinosaur or something else. Sometimes he comes out with socks on his hands??!?! As if he is doing a puppet show? Too funny!
What is this? Its like he is not tired enough, but I can see that he is tired, he just doesn't want to sleep. Last week where this started I walked him back to bed for the 100th time and gave him a hug and he looked at me and said 'Mammi, en stor kanon' (a big canon). That day at the daycare they had been on a little trip to the water and they saw ducks and big canons. I couldn't stop laughing when he said that. I think he is learning so much these days and he is like a little sponge, he just takes it all in and then at night when it is time to go to bed, he starts to think about everything he leaned that day and it keeps him awake.
Oh dear, I hope this is just a phase because our nights and free time are completely gone these days.
Happy Friday night y'all!
