Story Time and the Little Insomniac






Sullivan has a bit of insomnia this week. I think it’s because he’s going through a language learning phase and he is just not tired or too many things to think about. Last night he was up till 1:30am with Daddy watching his new favorite movie “Finding Nemo”. Well tonight we tried to tucker him out by a trip up to the grandparents so he could run around in their big yard. It helped a bit I think cause it only took him an hour and a half to fall asleep tonight and thankfully before midnight. Anyway, we captured some fun pictures of him tonight during story time. I have this favorite picture of his uncle Kirk in diapers reading a book and I have wanted to recreate it with Sullivan. We came close tonight but not an exact duplicate. He usually reads the first page of every one of his books as a night time routine but tonight he actually read several of his books front to back and multiple times. Another example of his new language skills. Notice several are upside down….well he read them up side down and right side up as well as front to back 🙂
Oh and tonight when we were at the grandparents he was playing a fun “magic” trick with grandmother Judy where she hid his cup underneath one of two hats and he had to guess where it was. Well at some point someone must have said “it’s amazing” cause he started to say “It’s Amazing” after he found the cup but his voice sounded more like a Latin announcer….Eatsa Masing!….priceless……and also while he was playing this game he was screaming and giggling and his great grandmother Jo who is being cared for at Jerry and Judy’s house called him a “My Little Screaming Mudpuddle”…it was too darling.
