Ryan isn’t always like this.
I just wanted to start this blog off with a disclaimer. He can be an angel at bedtime.
Anyway, today he woke up from his nap at around 130. This means that he would normally pass out before 8pm. He gave every indication that he was sleepy – the long yawns and the rubbing of the eyes. Anyway, as I was putting Ryan down in his crib I turned around to pick up a few things and when I turned back around he literally said ‘BOO!’ He freaked me out – no, I wasn’t scared. But it wasn’t what I expected. So, of course, I looked startled which made him laugh. And, not thinking clearly, I said “boo!” back.
ok…that was the end of his bedtime routine.
Now, Ryan had just discovered his new favourite thing!! He started running around like crazy in his crib and started ‘boo’-ing at me. It was pretty funny. Well, after about 10 minutes, it wasn’t so funny anymore. At this point, I had already learned my lesson. I was done ‘boo’-ing for the night. So, rather than force Ryan down I grabbed my camera and wanted to show mommy how Ryan behaves when she leaves Daddy to put Ryan to bed.
I took Ryan out of the crib and decided to let him roam around the living room. In the end, Ryan went to bed about an hour late but went down without even a fuss.
Check out the video. Also, note how blurry he is in the picture – that’s how fast the boy was running around!
