On today's episode of TLC, I share my thoughts on my child's new ability to fall asleep just about anywhere. It's weird.
I think my kid is Narcoleptic. I'm not 100% sure this is true, but it has valuable supporting evidence.
Last week I planned to go next door to visit my friend and had put my son to bed as normal. I always check on him around, oh, I'd say 765 times in a very short amount of time, but that night I didn't check him till right before I left the house. When I crept up the stairs and into his room I could see the top of his head against the corner of the crib. I found it to be very creepy at first and went further for a better look.
Yep, there he was: sleeping sitting up against the crib. Never in my most tired or drunken nights have I ever fallen asleep sitting up. I suppose you could say I was impressed by this.
Since then, he has fallen asleep sitting up a few times and it's very cute. I also find it very odd and I'm like, ummm is this OK? I imagine it is, but it's one of those first time Mom worries where you don't know what the hell is normal and what isn't.
Either way, I named these incidences, " Up-Sleeping". Don't get jealous of the originality, now people, I was born with this witty brain and I can't help it.
Anyway, today, the mother of all up-sleeps occurred. I was doing my make up just in the next room where I can clearly see my son playing. Seeing how we had to move all excess furniture ( i. e side tables and rocking chair) to the other room due to him climbing it all, there are little spaces of floor and wall on either end of the couch that he hangs out in.
I heard him whine about something briefly and then it got real quiet. That always scares me so I got up to have a peep and found him up-sleeping ....against the wall. He seriously looked like a drunk little old man that just couldn't make it home from the bar.
