Lucas, the terror
We had a wedding dinner to attend on Saturday night. My sister was so excited and told me to leave him there and pick him up on Sunday. I of course was happy to have a volunteer babysitter. Little did she know what is she getting herself into!
Lucas was happy and friendly till bedtime. My 2 sisters and parents tried to put him to bed at 9 pm and he did not sleep till 11pm. That was also Lucas's record. He usually sleeps by 8.30pm and 10.30 if we have an outing. Lucas cried on and off for 2 hours too. The four of them have to take turns to carry him. According to them, they tried every method imaginable! Took him for a walk in the garden, look at the fish pond, try to put him in all the bedrooms but still failed. He felt asleep cause he could not keep himself awake any longer at 11pm.
Meanwhile Dominic and myself were having such a quiet and peaceful time. For once, we can sleep without worrying if Lucas is going to be awake before us. That was wonderful.
Now, I am not sure if my family will volunteer to babysit Lucas overnight anymore...

Hi Yean!
too funny! It's nice that you have family around to help you with Lucas. That makes a big difference huh? and now with the Nanny, you can really have wonderful days! It seems like you can write a children's book about how they tried to put him to sleep, in the garden, at the fish pond, all the rooms...........I was cracking up!
That boy can be a real terror when it comes to sleeping. The nanny still failed to put him to sleep thus far...
