Musing on Late Nights

in

Sorry it has been a very long time since Sarah or I have posted so it is high time. A couple of notes:

The Website has been updated. There is now a Gallery tab rather than link. This tab integrates our old Gallery into the new and improved updated webpage. It is really slick and deserves to be checked out.

Luke is two and half months old. How time does fly. I will try to get some newish pictures of him up soon. Again check the gallery, there is some pretty recent stuff in there. Now on to the topic of the day.

Luke for the last few months has been up pretty late in the evenings. He has historically been going to sleep around 11 maybe 11:30. As you might expect at first this takes a toll and then you just start getting used to it. Well, Sarah and I have gotten used to it (although, I still think that she needs a nap most days, whether she gets it or not). So in an effort to pass this new found time we have been reading books together. We have started with The Chronicals of Narnia. We had both already recently seen the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe so we started with the Magicians Nephew, then read the Horse and His Boy. We are currently about 3/4 of the way through Prince Caspian (we will hopefully be able to get out and see the movie once we finish).

Now, this may sound like a wonderful relationship building thing to do together. It really is. But, it does have negative side effects. Last night, for instance, Luke went to sleep around 10:30 (he is in general going to sleep much earlier). However, do to some other stuff going on we didn't get to read until about that time. I ended up reading to Sarah until just about midnight. It is really ridiculous. You would think we would learn our lesson and take sleep whenever it is offered. Not so much.

Apparently we are just gluttons for punishment.

In any case, Prince Caspian is a great story from a master storyteller. I would encourage anyone to either pull out or borrow from the library the Narnia books. They are so much fun and perhaps you will find yourself so enthralled that you forget the time and immerse yourself in the story.
