But once in a while he'll ask to rock. I'm sure we look a sight, little short me with this ginormous boy who's so big his feet almost touch the ground when we sit in the rocking chair. But I'll rock my baby as long as he'll let me, and those are the things I remind myself to cherish when I've been trying for an hour to get him to just SLEEP already.Lisa @ The Plain-Spoken Penhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15589278128659676715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4004136159072085450.post-34807037669964930842007-02-09T19:13:00.000-06:002007-02-09T19:13:00.000-06:00Very sweet- and a good reminder to not take all th...Very sweet- and a good reminder to not take all the little things so for granted, as I'm often guilty of doing!Eleanorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01634438308788251729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4004136159072085450.post-33138985303651443472007-02-09T16:35:00.000-06:002007-02-09T16:35:00.000-06:00Oh, I miss the Big Chair.

Bedtime is necessarily quick and efficient. Sometimes I wish it was otherwise, and included a snuggle in a chair or whatever - but one break in routine and I'm terrified that the whole thing will rush downhill and we'll cower in our upstairs hallway with tired, lost expressions, waiting for Supernanny to come and rescue us from the 4 hour bedtime.<BR/><BR/>So, 10 minutes from 'its bedime' to 'goodnight, love you, see you in the morning' is sorely lacking in the fond memories department. Darn it all!! Surely we can work *something* in!cheribearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10454127394682222434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4004136159072085450.post-21176689486551930902007-02-09T11:40:00.000-06:002007-02-09T11:40:00.000-06:00Eh, it's probably pretty darn similar.Eh, it's probably pretty darn similar.Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05225042488117913679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4004136159072085450.post-68689253098358652132007-02-09T11:37:00.000-06:002007-02-09T11:37:00.000-06:00Oh, how sweet, Christy!I know it's not the same, b...Oh, how sweet, Christy!<BR/><BR/>I know it's not the same, but Winston does the same thing Claire does. When his bedtime rolls around, he stares at me and then lies down in the middle of the room (to remind me how uncomfortable the floor is and can we please go to bed already?). He's like me -- not a night owl, LOL.Katie Alenderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17210222751354931694noreply@blogger.com
