Year 3 – Week 41 – Day 5

Spaghetti night! Brendan couldn’t wait until I finished eating because he likes to play with the sauce with the fork.341b09

The sleeptime challenges continue with Trevor. He was a terror this morning because he is overtired. I am having a hard time finding ways to help him relax and fall asleep. Once he does, he usually can sleep through the night.

Despite being obviously exhausted, he refused to nap. Then he gets literally punchy and wants to smack and hit everything and everyone in frustration, one of his biggest signs of mega-fatigue.

Tonight’s bedtime should have been easy, but he fought and fought. He told me the ceiling was going to fall on him. (We were recently in a grocery store where part of the ceiling collapsed under heavy rain) He told me that he peed the bed and I needed to change the sheets. (They were clean and dry!) Then he said Brendan barfed on his bed. (not!) He says he needs the light on because his hands are too dark. He finally slapped me one time too many and I walked out. He turned on his lamp and fell asleep like this.341t20

 

Of course I went in and put him in bed properly.  He will probably really enjoy sleeping in the trailer for the next two weeks where he will share a bed with either me or Bill. Sleep training when we get home will be fun!

2 days until departure!
