bed time routines
Drew and I have the routine of him putting Anna Claire to bed and I put Amelia to bed. I always read Amelia a story, we say prayers, and then I pat her back before leaving her room. Well, a few months ago Drew and I changed it up and got a chance to put Anna Claire to bed. She's not much for getting back patted, so I wanted to come up with our own little routine. So, we read a story, and I wanted to rock her for a minute. She is my last baby, and I need all the rocking like a baby I can get before I can't get anymore. Well, she isn't my child that likes to rock, so in order to convince her to let me hold her like a baby I asked her if she wanted to sing a song, so we sang several songs together before going to bed. When I put her to bed again, she just looked at me and said song. She wanted me to hold her like a baby and sing a song with her. Melted my heart! So, now our night time routine is read her a story or both girls a story together, Anna Claire and I sing a song together, then kisses good night and getting in bed, then off to Amelia's room for patting her back and kisses. I love our little night time routine!
