Having been out of town for the majority of the last two weeks, Chongo has been a little more needy in terms of attention since I've returned. As is the normal late evening routine, they get fed, we play with Chongo for 15-30 minutes then he follows me to bed. He'll continue to play with me for a bit, but when I'm done he usually heads to my wife's office (she's definitely a night owl) or just lay down next to me.
Since my return, when I am done with the kitten games and ready to close my eyes he has started to grab the comforter with his teeth, peel it back and drag it to the foot of the bed. Definitely funny, and the first time I just laughed and played with him a while longer. The second night, same thing, still funny but not the same as the first time.
Enter night three of my return and the same schtick. Not funny at all this time as I had a pretty long day and still trying to adjust my sleep schedule from being half way around the globe. This time it doesn't happen once, but twice ending with him jumping off the bed with comforter in mouth and trying to tug the whole thing away.
Jump forward to this morning with the want to sleep in a little (I'm the morning feeder person) and same thing. Comforter getting tugged to the floor, an up too late Trish proclaiming "REALLY" and Chongo backing his way to the stairway tugging the comforter with a great deal of determination.
Certainly pretty funny, and I know what I need to do to correct this, just wanted to share my "Welcome Home Dad" activities. So this evening I play with him until he claims "no mas" at around 1AM, set the alarm for 4AM so I am up before he is and then all should be good.
