Every day Will gets wigglier. A few nights ago he wouldn't go to sleep (a separate issue - he had a rough dinner and threw up multiple times, once all over mom). Every hour after we put him to bed until at least after midnight he would wake up wailing. So we would go in to check on him (to make sure he hadn't puked all over himself again). And almost every time we did he had wiggled himself to one of the edges of his crib and I think a lot of times he was bumping his head on the wood and that's why he was crying. This picture was taken earlier in the day when we got him up from one of his naps, and it perfectly illustrates the chaos that has become Will's nap time.
Let me point out a few things in this scene, so you can appreciate how awesome this nap was.
First of all, when we lay him down, we put his head underneath the mobile (the green thing) and his feet toward the window (which is to the right in this picture). So he managed to wiggle himself perpendicular to his original position.
Second, the yellow blanket he has in his grip was originally folded up and used as a pillow.
Third, the blue blanket which was used to cover him was kicked off and in the far corner of the crib.
Finally, the blue-and-green patterned quilt to his right started off folded up and laid over the top of the back wall of the crib as decoration. It wasn't easy to reach, either, it was probably more than a foot from the cushion to the edge of the hanging quilt.
Yesterday he slept fine for all his naps and slept all night just fine, but it's always a fun surprise to see what position he'll be in when we get him up in the morning or after a nap.
