fun day

Today was fun for two reasons:

1) Somebody took his nap. I don't know what was different, normally I lay him in his little Leif bed and then I sing him some songs and make up some stories and he is out pretty quick. If he doesn't fall asleep right away, then I lay down on my little foamy mattress and we just have quiet time till he eventually (or simply doesn't) fall asleep. Then came the nap chaos of the last few weeks, and today it was back to normal. I wasn't able to have him fall asleep with books, but when I layed down on my bed I told him in my most firm voice: "Leif, NO talking. NO moving. Quiet Time. Close your eyes." Not mean voice, just no nonsense voice. Sure enough, I think he was so shocked he just layed there quietly for 10 minutes till he was snoring. It was heaven. We both slept for 2.5 hours.

2) Then we went to: KiDz BOunCe!!!! Which, in case you didn't know, is the most awesomest place ever. Especially if you are two years old and 21 pounds. And for $6? I wish it was open every day. They had a drop in from 4:00 - 5:00 and Leif played the whole hour at mach 10. All the kids tower over him, but he can't seem to be bothered. Climbing up the giant slide ladder he was a little slow and when the 10 years olds are antsy to pass him he just turns around and stops. Tells them "Back up! Leif's body!". And they do. When we left he was tired and happy, then he ate 8 pieces of salmon sushi & a piece of mochi ice cream for dinner.

Did I mention Survivor is on tonight? H-E-A-V-E-N.
