DS has done this twice this week. We wakes up between 9-11pm and even if I nurse him, he either won't sleep more than 5 minutes or will not go back to sleep. He then gets REALLY playful and absolutely hilarious. Seriously, last night he was being SO funny. It was the first time I've ever noticed that he was purposefully doing things to make me laugh and get a reaction. It totally worked. He'd do something silly, stop, grin and look at me. It was way too precious.
He also gets super snuggly and cuddly. Since I was watching TV when he woke up, he just curled into my lap and watched it with me for about 10 minutes.
Even though I want him to have healthy sleep habits (which includes not waking up to play!!) it was SO cute and I kinda liked it
Does you LO ever wake up to play?
