Crash and Burn


Today has been a pretty normal day for Mr. Wyatt. We slept till 7 a.m, then played until 8:30 for our first nap (well his, not Mommy's). Then back up again at 10:30 to play some more. Visited with Daddy at lunch time, then back down at 1 for his second nap. That one was interupted by Mr. Schwartz who got himself locked in Wyatt's room AGAIN. So at 3 Wyatt was awake and ready to play. This was all very normal. Then Daddy called and said he was going to work until 7. Uh Oh. That means that Mommy is responsible for the evening entertainment.

Wyatt's normal bedtime is after 8:00 and with Daddy home that is not a problem. But I was watching Wyatt and at 5:00 he told me he was sleepy. (Started rubbing his eyes, fussing, clinging to me.) So outside we went. We fed the horses, walked around the property, ran thru the sprinkler, walked down the road and went back inside to try and play some more. That only got us to 6:15. So I made some dinner for him and we ate some cookies. Tried to let him play againg but it was a no go. Evidently Mommy is not entertaining enough. So at 6:40ish I gave him a bottle (because I think he was about 5 minutes away from a melt down) and at 6:50 he was out!!! Thats right, for the night! So poor Daddy got home and the little boy he loves sooo much was sleeping for the night. Poor Dad pouted for an hour and kept saying, maybe it's only a nap. Ha. So I guess Daddy doesn't get to work late anymore!!
