Sleeping on my lap

Today is the first time Barnabas fell asleep on my lap. Ya....I really think it is the first time coz I can't remember any other times when he fell asleep on my lap. Of course when he was a little baby maybe got lah but that didn't count lah.

Forced him to sleep at about 3pm just now. Hahaha....yes, had to force him as he normally does not want to sleep if given the choice. After giving him the medicine for flu and cough, let him drink his milk and before he could finish his 6 ounces of milk, he was fast asleep.

Then put the other two girls to sleep also. No, no, no.... I'm not talking about "putting to sleep" when you want to kill your old or sick dog. What I meant is helping my girls to go to sleep. Then I go out from the room to check my email and of course play mosiang.

Then at about 4pm, Barnabas woke up and cried. As usual he would go out from the room and look for someone. He saw me, continue to cry and went to look for his grandma. Haizzz... I think I bullied him so much that he does not want his daddy, prefers his grandma coz his grandma showers him with lots of attention.

Anyway...I took him from his grandma as his grandma wants to prepare Milo drinks. Phew....at least he is willing to allow me to carry him. Took him to the dining table and feed him a strip of kuey teow. Gave him water to drink also. Then he yawned and slumped down on the bench with his head resting on my lap. The eyes opened and closed, opened and closed and slowly he doze off. It's so nice to see him sleeping on my lap, resting peacefully. Wah...another father son moment. Wished I had the camera and capture the moments. Nevermind lah... as long as I can cherish the moments cukuplah.

After a few minutes I know that he is still sleepy. Brought him back to the room and put him to sleep.
