Camping

Finally asleep

Tonight we are camping. Well sort of! Levi is sound asleep in the tent, outside the back door. I think that I won't even bother getting into the tent as the air mattress is already losing air and frankly as soon as the excitement of going to sleep in the tent is over, he is just asleep. I will pick him up and snuggle him into bed. Likely he will get a better night sleep anyway on a night that I really need him to get a full night.

Tomorrow we go to the wedding and he will be up really late. I am planning to keep him there until he is tired and then just leave. It will be a fun night. He will last some of it but not to the wee hours, which is perfect for me. I am happy to go only as long as he lasts.

Levi didn't miss a beat when we talked about not camping by the creek. He just set about making a fire out of a toy and getting organized then he helped me put up the tent, blow up the air mattress and get out the sleeping bags. He then played happily in the tent until dinner. Such a sweet boy!
