Rough Night

Declan had a rough night last Friday (11/7/08) and was up from 2am to 4am. He was crying and wanted to get down and play. We coaxed him back to sleep a few times, but he kept wanting to get back up again. Some of it may have been due to his shots (pain kept him up?), or else due to "Wonder Week" where kids go through developmental spurts, where they are in bad moods until they figure it all out.

Anyway, he slept past 9am both weekend mornings. He's usually up by 7:15am every day.

He has calmed down a little since then. We put another night light in his room and spent an extra 15 minutes or so calming him in his crib to make sure he's really ready to sleep. And try to tire him out during the day (actually we try for that EVERY day).
