The room was still dark. All of a sudden I heard a noise - I reach over as I often do to hit snooze. The alarm does not turn off. I come to and realize that it isn't the alarm at all but the monitor and Lucas is sqwaking away. I give a big sigh (as I always do - woe is me!) and look at the clock to see how long the little monster has slept this time."Peter guess what time it is!" Yeah we were in shock it was 6am and we hadn't heard a peep from Lucas since we put him to bed at 6pm last night!! Hard to believe but our strategies have been working.
So from now on bed at 6pm, dream feed at 10pm and awake at 6am - that I can handle.
I could be jumping the gun here but hopefully this is not just a one time thing.
Since he had so much sleep last night Lucas has been in a great mood today. We went to get his shots and he was so good as we waited for the nurse to call us in. He just chatted away to the other people in the waiting room - blew some bubbles and played with his new hippo from Grandma and Opa.
When we came home he called Nana and Papa to wish them a good trip. He didn't feel like talking to Papa but yelled a few things to Nana - I think he was saying have a good trip and I look forward to meeting you on Friday.
For some reason Lucas has taking to randomly yelling at things (it must be the dutch in him) He especially likes to yell at the clock in his room.
I think it might have something to do with the fact that when Peter settles him at night he takes him over to the clock and tells him what time it is and then lets him know it is not time to get up yet. Lucas has a few choice words for the clock when he is awake."come on mom hurry it up I am hungry"
"Yummy this is so good, give it a try Dad"
"Agh... I ate too much!"
