Last thing before bed is always to go into Jack's room and watch him sleeping[1] for a minute or so, marvelling at how cute he is and what a miracle the whole reproduction thing is[2] etc etc.
Last night I said to L, when do you think we'll stop doing this?
Consensus: when he's no longer in bed when we go up.
[1] Wednesday night as I approached, he half sat up, extended an arm towards me, and said "cuggle". I'm not sure he really woke, but he was aware enough to know I was there. So we had a brief cuddle while I softly spoke the magic words "Go back to sleep". Which he did.

Not really possible with
However, last night I did go in to pick him up off the floor and put him back in bed.

I envy you, because Charles hardly ever slept, and I was rarely able to see him as an angelic sleeping child, because if he *was* asleep and I dared to enter his room, he'd immediately wake up. I really wonder why it now takes the Trump of Doom, or the telephone ringing constantly for five minutes to wake him, once he's actually been able to go to sleep, that is.
Even when he was a tiny baby, just home from hospital, sleeping in the carrycot right next to my bed, I would still wake up in the night to find him staring at me, eyes wide open and totally silent. Talk about unnerving!

Post-ejaculatory nausea? Yeah, I've had that too.
