I've been reading a lot about sleep lately.* The books and websites tell me that I should put Sam down sleepy but awake. And to do it before he gets fussy and overtired. That sounds easy enough. But adorable little Sam moves like lightening from one state to another. In fact, after only 45 minutes of being awake (after a nap or a night's sleep), he starts to do this:
This talking and kicking is super cute, but believe me, a coo or a smile can turn into a cry at any second. It's hard to rush him off to bed at moments like this because I'm in such disbelief that Sam is tired already and because he obviously has something to say.
* No surprise there.

p.s. I'm just noticing how that cloth diaper looks like a bowling ball in his pants.
Can you imagine if a grown person made so many shifts in their facial expressions within 2 minutes. We'd avoid that person at all cost.
But with infants, it's just part of the show!
I love that little bouncy seat.
He is so sweet. I miss him so much. Love you Samwise.
I too have read so many books on sleep, so I can feel your pain so much.
Also, the kid is just a huge hit. Well, done you guys!!
I now can see the classic jdoc smile un sam's visage.
I may be using the word visage incorrectly.
