Insomnia is hilarious… until it isn’t.

We had a really great day with you today. Daddy got up and fed you a much bigger breakfast than mommy usually does, but you didn’t complain. You ate a light lunch and then your regular afternoon snack. After that, we went to Mall of America so daddy could get a haircut and you went with mommy to see the aquarium instead of just waiting. You slept on the way home and while mommy was at the grocery store. And when we got home, you fell asleep pretty quick.

Then, you woke up. And when you did, you cried for a bit, so daddy brought you into the living room where you could fall asleep on his chest. But you didn’t. Instead, you got into a crazy bout of the giggles which made it REALLY hard for mom and dad to keep things low key and quiet. And for some reason, your pacifier was the funniest thing on the planet.


After your laughter, you became very irritated and remembered how tired you were, so sometime around 10:30 pm (and much crying) and a bottle, and a change of pajamas, and many songs, you finally fell back to sleep.

(footnote: And again at 1:00 am. Maybe this is gas?)
