harimad's term) may be getting less portable. Specifically, as he gets more aware of and interested in the world outside his head, I think it becomes harder for him to sleep out in public. We tried to take him to a party in the Moby last night, which has always been fine: we put him in the Moby and he hangs out until he gets tired, at which point he fusses for 4 minutes and then passes the hell out. Only last night it didn't work. He cried and I fed him and he cried and Mr. E changed him and he cried and we jiggled him and he cried and we gave up and put him back in the car and he screamed 2/3 of the way home, oh my god. It is my understanding that some babies actually find car rides soothing. The Junebug refuses to have any truck with this concept. If he's in a car, he's probably screaming. >____<
I bought a Sleep Sheep. This was another peer pressure purchase, incidentally. It has filled me with regret. Specifically, it has filled me with regret that we did not buy it before the little guy was even born, because YESSSSSS. I had thought it would be good for putting him to sleep, but it's not loud enough for that. What it does do, though? It put him back to sleep when he thrashed himself awake but wasn't hungry. We slept till like 9 today! There was joy in the morning!
As we were walking home today a truck turned the corner and a big crate fell off the back of it! I did not know that actually happened ever! I thought it was only a euphemism!
