My Sleeping Habits....

I like to be firmly swaddled before bed. I'm a bit of a Houdini though -- unless Mum and Dad use THREE muslin wraps and then zip me into my sleeping bag, I manage to get my hands out and once those hands get cold I wake up and can't get back to sleep. After a few rough nights long ago, Mum and Dad figured out how to truss me up good and tight!

AT THE MOMENT (everything is 'at the moment' since I change so frequently!) my schedule looks something like this...

6am - wake up happy (actually giggling), feed and play until about 7.15am

10.30am - wake up, feed and play until about 12noon

3pm - wake up, feed, play for an hour

5pm - wake up, feed, play for an hour or so and down by 6pm for the night

(at 10pm Mum and Dad give me a bottle - its suposed to happen while I'm still sleeping, but I love to take at least one peek around while I'm drinking)

So that's my usual. But then there's days when my 'usual' goes to the wind. Like today, when I woke up at 5.30am and then didn't sleep until 10.40am coz I just got too overjoyed by my own company in bed. I find that I'm so fun to talk to! During the day, sometimes its hard to get myself back off to sleep if I wake during a nap, and when Mum or Dad come in to put my dummy back in, I giggle with excitement and think they have come in to play with me. I have a feeling they find it very hard to keep a straight face....
