Sleeping

 Joel has been sleeping a little better lately.  The first week home with Norah he would stay in his bed until about 4ish which is amazing for him.  He has officially dropped his nap (both boys did that when we brought a new baby home go figure)  But he still needs a nap so you might find the following around 5:30:
Poor kid was so tired he didn't wake up when we put him on the couch and then a few hours later put him to bed - even changed him and everything.  Slept until 6 the next morning.  Unheard of for him to sleep so long.  But I think we've finally figured out why he wakes up so many times in the night.  A few times this week we've found this when we've gone to check on him:
Sound asleep. Now each time we're up taking care of Norah we check on Joel.  Maybe if we keep putting him back in bed he'll learn to sleep all night in his own bed.  Last night I woke up around 2 to feed Norah and found Joel asleep between Brent and I.   I have no idea how long he had been there.  But he is cute rubbing our "pretty ears" to go back to sleep.

Ma-ma-maa and Ant Ant would disagree at how cute he is rubbing pretty ears and sleeping in bed with you.
