Michael feel asleep in his high chair for the first time ever this morning. He woke up earlier than usual to the sound of the lawn mower outside (it was a surprisingly cool evening last night so we had the windows open). I fed him some breakfast and cleaning up the kitchen while he finished up.
1st time I looked over at him I thought: He sure is being quiet and good. He doesn't really look hungry anymore.
2nd time I say him yawn and thought: Oh he must be tired still.
3rd time: I'll just finish these last dishes in the sink and get him back to bed.
4th time: Whoops. Too late. Already asleep.
So then I debated whether or not to take him out of the high chair. First of all he was a mess still. If I wiped him off, I was sure he'd awake. Secondy, I figured the high chair probably wasn't all that comfortable. Third, he must be pretty tired to fall asleep in there. He'll probably keep sleeping if moved. A little crumbs in the crib can't hurt anything. Right? Wrong thinking. By the time I made it up the stairs and into his room, I could tell he was too awake to lie peacefully in there if I laid him down. Then taking him into my bed didn't work either. He was bright eyed and bushy tailed by the time I laid down next to him. Oh well. Guess his little 5 minute nap in the high chair was sufficient. Over were my dreams of a peaceful morning getting some things done a little earlier. Next time he falls alseep in his high chair, I think I'll leave him in there.
