So last night I had to go to Lethbridge and babysit for some people I know. (yes, I am a little old to be babysitting but it's nice to have that little extra cash). Anyways, I was going to be home really late, so I didn't bring Atreyu with me. Instead he stayed at home with his dad.
The past week, ever since Atreyu got really sick with Bronchiolitis and ear infections, he won't go to sleep easily for me anymore. He will sit in his bed and literally scream, until I finally give in and go cuddle with him. He is slowly getting better at let me put him down without cuddling him, but he is still waking in the middle of the night and needing someone to go in to re-tuck him in. ( I have a suspicion that he is teething )
Anyways, so Tyler has him, feeds him, baths him, and puts him to bed. Apparently, not a peep was heard from him after he put him in his bed. Just went to sleep. I guess I need to work on my tough love. It's just so hard when he is so cute and gives me the wettest kisses when I go in there. He totally has me wrapped around his finger. And he knows it too. But I love that I can leave him with his dad and that they get along so well and can have their bonding time. It will be harder to do that when Tyler gets his firefighting training done and he finds a department to work for. There will be nights that it will just be Atreyu and I. It will be lonely, but we will make the days when Tyler is home extra fun to make up for him being away.
