Musical beds

This is where we find Avi more often than not. Either before bed as pictured here when he has snuck into our room to fall asleep unbeknownst to us or in the middle of the night when he wakes up and sneaks in be with us, also unbeknownst to us generally because we're both too dead tired to notice an extra body in that queen size bed (which is already also Murphy's sleep spot of choice to my frustration) until we wake up stiff and sore because of our contortions to make room for him (and Murph). I have to say one thing though. For all his challenges getting to sleep and staying asleep in his own bed, once he's asleep he's a great little smuggler. He doesn't wiggle and squirm. He doesn't breathe loud or anything else distracting. Unlike his big brother who is too squirmy to sleep with or his little brother who is too independent to sleep with anyone, Avi is a great sleep companion. Until of course you wake up drenched as I did one night last week because he'd peed all over both of us and the bed. Ugh. We both changed jammies, abandoned Cary on the dry side of our bed and moved to Avis bed together. Other nights (no pee involved), Cary has been the one to give up and move to Avi's bed in the middle of the night. Easier than moving him I guess he figured.
