Caden Riley

Good Morning!!!!! Please remember that I am a first time blogger---so who knows how this will turn out. I did a no no last night. I put Caden Riley in the bed with me. He woke up screaming about 10:00 last night and I was feeling a little sad and lonely. So, I gathered him, his three blankets, pacifier (AKA Boo) and his Yellow Bup Bup (his puppy for those of you who don't speak "Caden" yet). It was comforting to have his little, warm body next to me in the bed. Comforting until 4:30 this morning when he decided my hair needed to be redone. I don't know when he got so into styling hair, but he loves to fix mine at all hours of the night. I spent all last week getting him back on a schedule and getting him to sleep in his bed all night long. One night, he cried for almost an hour while I sat on the couch and watched some crazy movie in the middle of the night. I sat up and listened until he went to sleep. A mother knows the different cries of her child, and his wasn't a needy cry----it was a cry of determination to have someone pick him and all his night time belongings up and put him in the bed with Ma Ma. Well, I won that round, but I lost last night. That's okay. Today is another day and we will try again.
