Ben woke up at around 8 this morning. He had another rough night. He woke up at 3:30AM. He wasn't hungry, but he didn't want to sleep. He ate a little of his bottle, but when Michael brought him back to his crib he spit it up.
I think he's approaching the "living on air" stage. He ate very little today. A little bit of a waffle and sausage patty for breakfast. He barely touched his burger and applesauce for lunch. I don't recall him finishing a full bottle today.
After breakfast, we went out for my usual Sunday morning cappucino. I took him to the gym at 11. I worked out for an hour on the elliptical trainer while he played in the Kidz Club. When we got home I fixed lunch for us. After that, I put him down for a nap while I took a shower. He slept for about 2 hours. I took a nap myself. Michael woke us up around 3PM.
We left at about 3:45. We stopped at a local Pho restaurant to pick up something to eat during the game. His parents had pizza, Michael ate some but I wanted something a little lighter. Ben got to a point where he was grumpy and tired but wouldn't go to sleep. He fell asleep in the car on the way back home. Michael had to wake him up to give him a bath. I gave him a "knock-out" bottle. Then Michael tried to put him down for the night. He didn't feel like sleeping. We let him play then put him back down again. He cried for about 10 minutes then fell asleep.
