Something New Everyday

AS Dad has pointed out time and again, every time he makes a declarative statement about the nature of his children, they take it as a challenge to prove him wrong.

EJ has never been a fan of swings. He tolerated them for a few minutes but ultimately had to be puled from them because he began crying. Well, yesterday he decided he liked it and had a twenty minute rock to sleep.

This went so well, Dad did it twice that day. Below are pictures of him sleeping.

Dreaming of piloting a spaceship.

Or maybe dreaming of slaying dragons.

Normally Dad would put him to bed, but given that that would mean disturbing him, Dad left him alone and simply stilled the swing. He slept for over an hour both times.

Liesel is still no fan, but she seems to be one to two weeks behind her brother. Perhaps she too will come to like it.

Dad spoke with Grandma this morning. She expressed concern about his being upright while sleeping. The detachable bouncer reclines about 60 degrees, so he is not entirely upright. The angle is close to that of his car seat in which he has napped before. Dad will nap them in their crib as often as he can, but cannot justify waking him to move him. Once aroused, the nap would end, and Boy Boy would become cranky all too soon.
