I posted a while ago about Ian’s bedtime stall tactics.

He has been doing better at going to sleep without a fuss lately. We do the same thing every night. I turn out the lights and tuck him in. Then turn on his music. As I go to leave, he asks me for a drink. I get him a small sip of water and then kiss him and tell him it is time to go to sleep.

He always says “WAIT……I just have to tell you one more thing.!”

Then he waits for a minute while he tries to think up something to say. It is the same every night, he doesn’t really have anything else to say. He is just stalling.

The last few nights as I go to close the door he yells out “You are the best mommy in the whole world……and you are a knock out!”

I’m not really sure where he learned the word knock out, but I think it is sooo cute!
