Until tonight, I have never told Thomas a bedtime story, but it was getting late, and the usual tricks weren't working, so this is what I told him:
Once upon a time, there was a sweet baby boy named Thomas. It was Thomas' bedtime, but he wasn't sleepy, so he decided to go take a crawl until he was ready for bed. He got up and crawled to a magical, magical, magical place called Boobie Land, where there were all sorts of nice, magical boobies. There were big boobies and small boobies, round boobies and pointy boobies, white boobies, black boobies, yellow boobies, and red boobies. He decided that he was thirsty, but all the boobies looked so delicious, he couldn't decide which one to suck from. But suddenly, all the boobies started squirting milk! It started raining delicious, nutritious milk, so Thomas tilted back his head, opened his mouth, and drank all the milk he wanted. Then he cooed, "I am so sleepy now. I think I should go to bed." And he did. And he slept peacefully for
eight hours straight without waking his mommy up! Now isn't that wonderful?
THE END

So did he sleep 8 magical hours? :) Wow, Thomas must be getting big now, he's what, about 9 months old now?
I truly hope I can forget this one....ty. Some things one should NEVER read.

Just.... wow. And: HAHAHAHAHAH! Love it.
LOL! I soooo am not allowing that illustrated children's book in my house!
haha! I had to rec that just for TheTheologiansCafe!
ROTF LMAO!!!!
That was great! I think I'll tell it to Trev and Jason tonight!
I love a happy ending.
@corazon_apasionado - Sadly, no. Actually, Thomas has only slept that long once. He's not a "good" sleeper by any stretch of the imagination, especially this week, with an earache. He'll be nine months old at the end of this month! :)
@mortimerZilch - I'm sorry to have taken away a bit of your innocence.
@aahcoffee - Ha!
@nidan - How old are your young'uns?
@TheTheologiansCafe - Me, too. :)
@Amarisa - It's okay, none of mine were good sleepers either. You know, when mine were learning new things (crawling, cruising, walking) or were teething, their sleep went right out the window.
@Amarisa - they're not really mine. Jason was sleeping over for the weekend, and I have custody of Trev till his mother is back on her feet.
Blame it on my sleep deprivation, I saw a musical number and possibly a dance number or two. (Perhaps I should not have typed that). *Awkward silence*
I don't think there are "good" sleepers from what I have read. Sleeping patterns tend to change as factors change (i.e. teething).
Hahahahahaha, best bedtime story ever!
Those truly were magical boobies! Great story.
Shared your story with some friends and one sent me this link. It's hilaroious.

@BigToePeople - Oh my, haha! I agree, let's take out all that filler (like plot, character development, that so-unimportant "story arc", and tension) and the stories will be so much better! :P
