The Nightmare at Bedtime | An Update

Grayson's bed time situation has continued to worsen. 

Don't know what I am talking about? Find out here.

I am pretty much at my wit's end. Mike took the crib down the other day, and it was a sad moment for about two minutes...then I was over it. I put his crib mattress in the corner up against two walls in hopes that would give him the security he needs. So cute and cozy right?

BEFORE...

and

AFTER

Stuffed animals strewn about. Pillowpal misplaced.

And then today, I walked into his room to find this:

Who needs a bed?

Or pants for that matter?

Then Daddy came in and piled blankets and pillows on top of Grayson. He loved it, can you tell?

My child who once adored bed time now hates it. He pounds his fists on the door and then is up until late jumping, chattering and turning his sound machine on the minute it turns off. I can't micro-manage every second of his day so once he stops screaming, I leave him alone. I have tried everything - including laying with him for about an hour but he still grew furious when I left. If he stays awake, he stays awake. 

I am thankful for the time being that Easton goes to bed easily. He doesn't stay asleep but he does go to bed and he is content to play in his crib until he falls asleep. 

Speaking of Easton :) Here he is. More pictures like this to come for his 13 month update!
