Bed Time

Our favorite time with Eli everyday is bed time and not even for the serenity we enjoy afterwards. Eli's pretty much always sweet, but he's extra sugar-coated at night. It has always been this way, I remember some nights we cheesy parents didn't even want to put him to sleep. Brian's a sucker for the hugs, especially the head-on-shoulder ones.
Eli loves his nightnight routine. Quiet play in his room, stories with milk and singing. He sings with us and lays down peacefully in his crib. Last week he wouldn't fall asleep until I figured out that he now wanted cars in his bed. Tonight I went to get his toothbrush and came back to find him reading. Chocolate dipped, sugar coated sweetness. I always manage to put him to bed though.
