Drunk !

You may have seen drunks sleeping it off, limbs akimbo, mouth wide open, lost in their own world with no idea whats happening around them. Something like this guy :



Well here's Rudy, punch drunk, on milk !

The devilish angel - Rudra

The last two days our sonny boy has been sunny. He does not realize that when the sun goes down so must our heads and we must sleep. For him night time is paaartey time, so he's up showing us all facets of emotions, lying quietly, smiling, chortling, crying, howling, bawling, poopy face, hungry face, cry face etc.

Here is a pic of him finally asleep in mommy's lap looking angelic :

Sleepless nights.... ON

Yesterday night was my first sleepless night (nearly) with Rudra. It wa s also a record of sorts for him. He slept only 3 hrs in a 12 hr period. and all those 3 hrs were in snatches of 15 min - 20 mins at a time. Both Sunina & the nanny were tired and sleepy but the dudes switch was turned all the way up - to ON!

Around 1 AM Sunina woke me up and presented me my opponent - Rudy to lull him to sleep. I tried various forms of martial arts - the rumbling stomach, the walking sleep, the shoulder chin up art, then my sonorous sound style. All i could get was 15 minutes out of him. He was more trained then I thought. I did the best thing possible - bring in the experts ! I sauntered back to my bed and fell off asleep.

I was woken up again around 3 AM with the tough warrior still fighting it out. Then my memory blurs. I remember buckling in and bringing in the nanny who was a now a little refreshed. We decided to tackle this tough guy from scratch.

We cleaned him up, changed his clothes, turned him around on her lap and gave him a constant one- twos on his back and off like a light for 4 hrs ! Here's the story :
