I suppose all parents have embarrassing stories related to trying to get their children to sleep, especially in their own beds. Well, here's ours.
Amalia's bedtime stall tactics are quite impressive. She continues to find new ways to push the boundaries of our standard routine -- bedtime stories, lights off, songs, and then good night (in her own bed). We generally have lots of trips back and forth between our bedroom and hers--for various and assorted reasons. The other night I was impressed that it didn't take her nearly as long to finally go into her room to go to sleep, only to realize she'd actually fallen asleep at the foot of my bed where I couldn't see her.
And then last night her "final" resting place was Blue's dog bed. Well, at least we're sticking firm to the rule that she's not in our bed. That's something, right?
