I actually sing to Matthias before I put him down for bed on those rare occassions that I'm awake enough to do it. He just looks up at my face and licks me throughout the whole song ('hush little baby'). I dont know if he's licking me to make me stop or because he likes it or even if he cares at all. But I've always sung to all my babies at bedtime, and he is no different.
I'm hoping he can start sleeping with me in bed all night long soon. I just love it. Hubby is a bit peeved with all the animals in bed already - frankly, he's not a small man and we only have a queen sized bed and because of my back, I sleep with five pillows supporting my body in different positions. So he doesn't have much room right there. Add in two cats and sometimes a Brittany? The man sleeps on the edge of the bed. When it comes time that Matthias can sleep with us, I think I might as well give the queen size bed to my daughter or my sister and just buy a kingsized bed for us.

Although, hubby says I'll still find a way to squeeze him out of bed.
