This is the first line of a new song I have written.
Kai had a tough time sleeping last night and ended up between mama and daddy. Yes I know, BIG mistake but it is hard I say to hear him cry. Bob here, yes it is hard to hear him cry at 1am in the morning, but when other guests from the B&B are staying above and beside you along with the owners and everyone meets for breakfast in the morning, I find it hard to say "Good Morning" when i know our little Kai has probably kept them up, so that is why we decided to let him sleep with us.
Louisa continues, He is so little and I want him to feel loved and secure. I think it is going to take him a while to get into our schedule (the lack of schedule might be the issue).
Our day consisted of eating (Kai), changing diapers and a doctor check-up. The doctor just wanted to check his ears. All good. We got more cream for his excema. Spent about an hour in line at the pharmacy. Ran into Brendan and Mary and their kids (canadian couple whole also adopted). This was of course when it is Kai's afternoon nap.
So the song goes "my name is Kai and I'm a cranky pants", I sing it as a rap you repeat over and over and wave his arms in the air. He loves it!
His absolute favourite song is "Hands up baby hands up give me your love gimme gimme your love..." I will try to expand his musical tastes to some Wham! "Wake me up before you go..."
I did get the best present today....first Kai likes me more than daddy and I got Easter notes from my Blue team! Shout out to the BLUE team. I miss all my kids (blue and yellow). I hope they had a great Easter and not too much chocolate (a sometimes food). How was indoor nutrition break? Yes I know EVERYTHING so be good! Love you!

its fine to let him sleep wth you - what harm can it do if it makes him feel more secure - ignore the rigid fuss pots ... those cold stone imitations of humans .... and yes L&B - sweet adorable kai is probably a cranky pants because you keep chaning his routine - all babies need routine so if you keep him up past his afternoon nap of course he is going to be a cranky pants. but love the idea of this as a rap song.
