I took Geoff upstairs because he was getting sleepy - after a few hours of active play in the bouncer and in his gym, he was nodding off during his lunch. I changed his diaper (an adventure in and of itself, as he had pooed almost up his back and he peed twice during the change...) Of course, all this excitement woke him back up, but I put him in his crib where he stayed happy enough.
My goal was to jump in the shower while he napped. While I waited for him to fall asleep I folded some diapers, straightened up the nursery, put some clothes away that were too small for Geoff, etc. while he babbled away happily in his crib. 45 minutes later - after giving me plenty of time, of course, to take a shower that I used to do other things - he finally started to nod off. So I started the shower, got undressed, and... Waaaaaaaah! Guess who woke up?
So I tried to soth him in the crib, and then picked him up and nursed him a bit and when he nodded off, I set him in the crib. He woke up, but he seemed happy, so I decided that instead of watching him for 10 minutes to make sure he'd be ok for me to jump in the shower, I'd just jump in - I could jump out quickly if needed, right?
So I get in and about half way through I hear him start to cry - so I fast forward my shower and get out and dry off and pick him up. I decide I'll go ahead and change him again before we go downstairs - so I set him on the changing table while I get dressed. He cries away on the table as I quickly throw on my clothes. Just as I get my tank top on, the cries stop, and he's snoozing on the table. So I brush my hair, put on my deoderant (thank GOODNESS his room attaches to my bathroom, No?) and there he is still snoozing. SO I put him into the crib - and guess who is still napping???
What a turkey!
