My little rocker


For those of you that know Tyson, you may or may not have experienced his rocking episodes while he is sleeping or putting himself to sleep. ( It sounds like someone is nailing things into the wall!) He sits against the side of his pack-n-play and bounces off the netting until he falls asleep. This takes five minutes or up to two hours. :) Sometimes he sings Native American chants, or "Twinkle Twinkle little star.." I've always been concerned about it, but I guess it runs on both sides of our family ( Not me though!!). The doctor has reiterated to me that he does not have anything like autism, it is simply his soothing technique. (ugh) Needless to say I snuck(I know, it's not a word..."sneaked" just sounded really weird) into his room during naptime and found that he had fallen asleep sitting up and slightly fallen over. I couldn't help myself and stole a picture... He's such a funny kid.

I'm sure someday he'll grow out of it. Otherwise, he'll wife will have a lot to get used to! Cute new background, Heidi!

What can I say?.... Like father, like son! Devin used to rock himself to sleep on a rocking horse that we had. I don't know how he never fell off it. We'd go in the room and he be sitting on it and leaning again the head fast asleep. Zzzzzzzz....
