Sunday Fun-Day (HA!)

Sunday up until today has been a great experience. 

Wake up later than normal, get ready (looking fabulous, of course) and go to church

Take your time sitting and enjoy the meeting to its full extent... then go home and nap all afternoon. 

Even when Easton was first born, he was an angel, generally sleeping all through the first meeting, and only waking to feed, but NEVER fussing. 

Hm, what happened to that?

Easton has put himself of a nap schedule where he wakes up at about 5, then naps from 6 to about 

10 am.

Thats great - until you have church at 9 am. 

Easy has been waking up the last few days at 2 am (putting him back on a 3 hour eating schedule... Sleep regression anyone? *more on that another time*)

We decided this morning to try the "keep him awake until we leave" approach

EPIC. FAIL.

We walked into church with a crying baby... left the meeting a total of three times, once to warm up a bottle in the sink because the kitchen was locked (It took 10 minutes to make it a tepid bottle)... and the rest to walk around because OUR crying baby... only settles when he is being walked around.

We went to primary with a fussy baby, who remained fussy in T's arms while I taught 4 year olds, who are HILARIOUS to teach. one little boy stated very plainly:

"your baby cries a lot. my baby cries a lot too"

.Sigh.

We left church with a crying baby.

When we got home it took 20 minutes to settle our overtired baby enough to sleep. 

and then... WE SLEPT TOO.  

What a sunday. 

We will have to figure out something different for Sunday's.

Ideas anyone? Does the "wake him up from his nap and take him to church" approach work better??

Sunda - Funday!
