Somebody's not sleeping!

Krassi usually goes to bed around 7:30 pm, falls asleep pretty quickly, and sleeps until 7:00 am, or nearly so. We can usually tell how long he's been awake by how many covers he still has on and how warm he still is. Covers are still really not his deal, so I usually end up going back into his room when Owen goes to bed and covering him up.

It is so neat to me to see him sleeping like this - he looks so much more relaxed than he did when we first picked up him two months ago - back then he slept ram-rod straight. This is how I will often find him - the blankets are not totally off, but as much as he's able, they're shoved behind him.

And an "after" shot. We know he sleeps pretty solidly at night, because most mornings when we come down to get him and Owen up, he's still mostly covered up!

Tonight as Owen was finishing up his last things to get ready for bed (he goes to bed at 8:30), we kept hearing sounds from Krassi. Twice this week I've heard him wake up whimpering, and have spent some time with him helping him learn he's not alone, but tonight they were his silly/mischievous sounds. Sure enough, this is what we walked into the room to find:

One (very tiny) big boy wide awake and sitting up in his bed!!! This is the first time we've seen this!!

I didn't catch the most attractive moment in this one, but if you ignore the eyes and simply gauge the size of his grin, you'll get some idea of how pleased he is with himself. The big fuss and smiles we were making over him contributed, too. ;)

And here's Krassi looking inquisitively over the side of the rail at Daddy putting cushions on the floor next to the bed...just in case. I snuggled in by him for a few minutes, and then we repeated our bedtime routine (singing, and me laying him down near the wall and tucking him in (really tight this time!) and went out, shutting the door so there are no lights or sounds, and it's been sounding quieter since. ;) Silly boy!
