Sleep, he what last night?

So yesterday Desmond did not want to take his nap. Which is a bit of a pain since he still really needs it, and when he doesn’t take it he normally falls asleep sometime between 5 and 6 and is up again at 8 or so till midnight. He won’t go down though, so around 6pm, after dinner he was sitting in Dan’s lap and was out. We figured it was going to be a long night, but we went ahead and put him in a night diaper and longies and up to bed. We figured he’d come back down by 8pm or so.

8pm comes and passes no Desmond, huh, okay maybe he did go down for the night, but since he went so early he’ll probably be up by 4am at the latest. So Dan and I head to bed around 10pm. Dan goes to sleep with Desmond, since he tends to sleep longer if he is sleeping with someone. At 6:30am Dan’s alarm goes off, Desmond is still asleep. Umm wow, Dan gets ready for work and leaves around 7:20 like always. About 7:45 Desmond comes into our bedroom and gets in bed to snuggle with me, he is wide awake. So we get up. That was almost 14 hours of sleep, he must have really been tired.

Dan and I are still both shocked and figure it is unlikely to happen again, but we’ll take what sleep we can get from shortie.
