Horsey, Horsey

Joel has decided that sometimes, during the night he might wake up.  And since he's normally had a good sleep until this point he doesn't want to go back to sleep straight away.  And he might just sit and yell in his cot until Mummy or Daddy stagger along to see what the matter is and pretend to want a cuddle, to be taken into their bed in the hope he'll settle down to sleep again.

but no.

What tends to happen is Mummy just gets comfortable, and Joel will sit up, climb onto her tummy facing her knees and try to bounce and ride her like a pony.

Daddy finds it all very amusing becuase he's not being jumped on.  I guess his tummy isn't as bouncy and squishy as Mummy's.

Then after having had enough, Mummy will take baby and deposit him back in the cot with his lullaby music playing.  He'll have a little yell but once thumb is in and blankie sucked it's back to the world of nod again.

I just wish I could get back to sleep as readily as he does!!
