Today is Little Christmas.

The nieces and Su and Deniz were over running around and being tired and cranky. Eventually, I got tapped to put the baby to nap.

So we go into a darkened room and lie down and screamscreamSCREAM that we're NOT tired, NOT US!

And then she hugged me and fell asleep. On me. Leaving me in a darkened room with a very cuddly baby hugging me to sleep. So I stayed there until her mid-nap freakout. Missed part of dinner.

Note to the world: Cosleeping is clearly evil. Sure, you may say it's cuddly and snuggly, but you end up feeling bad at leaving. It's worse than sleeping with kitties all cuddled up with you.

Don't do it, unless you really *like* having cuddly weights of pure warmth and light on top of you.

"It's worse than sleeping with kitties all cuddled up with you."

I dunno about that! Kitties knead you with their happy feet, and rumblepurr to vibrate your whole chest, and give you baths.

Of course, babies probably smell better. And don't leave you covered in fur or scratch marks.

Smell better, yeah, but I only *once* had a cat wet the bed.

I will admit I can't wait until the day I have my bed BACK though. ;)

My eldest did this a lot in her first year or so of life. Which was cute. But it usually caused panic attacks on my part which wasn't so cute. Glad you could handle it better than I did.

kira couldn't get to sleep last night, so i was laying in bed with her for an hour. then she woke up in the middle of the night and i laid with her another hour until she could get back to sleep. i did feel bad getting up and leaving to go back to bed. she's warm and cuddly... but she thrashes and coughs and forcefully snuggles in her sleep. she is not a good co-sleeper!
