The Chemo has ruined him.

One of the things we have always prided our selves on is the fact that our kids are really good sleepers. They have all slept through the night at a young age, Luke and Dallin would sleep in until 8:30 or 9:00 every morning (or later). Some people are just blessed I guess.

Before we took Critter in to the hospital he was taking two-two hour naps a day, going to bed at 8:00 pm and sleeping for twelve hours, it was great.(we have learned that this was because his red blood cells were low. I'm starting to wonder if that is a bad thing though) Any way, since we have been home I think we only have one complaint, he doesn't want to sleep anymore than he has to. Critter still goes to be great but has decided he wants to be awake at 6:15 every morning and wont nap for longer than 45 minutes once a day, if any of you know us very well we are not morning people and we love our naps so we are almost ready to send him back to the hospital to drop his counts so we can finally get some sleep.(That's a joke we are not looking forward to going back but is has been brought up as a solution to our problem)

So if there are any morning people out there that want to come hang out at our house from 6 till 7:30 let me know and we'll see what we can arrange. As for the rest of us we will try to embrace him as our own despite our differences.

  1. lol! see this is what we have been dealing with from the beginning. You never know... you might get lucky and get to sleep in until 7am one of these days... those days are sacred in our house!

  2. That's hard! At you have an excuse--my kids just got those early rising genes from Jeremy and he's long gone to work in the morning (5 am) to take care of them when they're wide awake at 6:30!

  3. I am not a morning person either, but Josh and Harbor on the other hand are. Harbor wakes up at 6:15 everyday too... hate it!
