Finding Nemo

Movies can really be put to good use. There's a scene in Finding Nemo where Nemo listens to Marlin (the father), so we explained the importance of listening to Richard and I. Now he repeatedly chants after he's been obedient, 'Nemo listen daddy, Isaac listen daddy' :)

Bedtime havoc

It has been really difficult getting you to sleep nowadays. It used to only take about an hour from bathtime to you falling asleep but lately it has been mostly 2, somtimes 3 hours, which is so frustrating, resulting in me scolding you occasionally. This means time for me starts about 11 or 11.30 at night, which is really tiring.

This is what happens:
- Lights off and finished drinking your milk
- Toss and turn, again and again
- Climb over me (as I lie next to you) and up and down the bed
- Ask to 'wee-wee'
- Ask for more milk (which I did in the beginning but now give water instead since it cleans your teeth)
- Toss and turn (I've raised my voice by this time)
- Ask to 'wee-wee' again (sometimes 2-3x)
- Toss and turn (arrgghhhh)
- Finally falls asleep

Any solutions? I left him twice, and he cried until he vomited. Sigh..

Barney

It must have been the nursery as Richard and I have never introduced Barney to you. Barney, the purple dinosaur is your favourite programme now - TV or U tube, and ask for it everyday! Like a broken record, you repeat over and over again 'Watch Barney, Barney TV....'. It probably is the songs that you like. The good thing is you learn from it, and follow instructions of 'Barney says you must share', 'Barney says you must be a good boy', 'Barney says tidy up' etc :)
