don't get me wrong, i love my little boy... how could i not? but lately bedtime has been causing mommy much frustration. i put the blame on myself: i definitely took the crib apart too early. but no going back now. with summer time we've also been more social and bedtime has been much less routine. i suppose i need to take some action (besides slamming the door after 30 minutes of 'sleeping' next to kaimana only to have him repeatedly sit up and say 'awake'), but what i'd really like is to return to the days when he'd just trot down the hallway with his bear and binky and get into bed and go to sleep.
argh.
thankfully, i have an understanding and helpful husband who has taken over this evening bedtime with much more patience than i could muster.
now the question remains: to 'retrain' kaimana into a bedtime routine at a reasonable hour, or to let his bedtime shift around depending on when he is tired. which lately has been pushing ten o'clock.
i guess we'll figure that out tomorrow.
