Sleep is a symptom of caffeine deprivation.

Archer’s new teeth and a short- lived cold combined forces over the weekend to keep everyone from getting much sleep. I’m glad Cyn decided to take Friday off or I would have been in really bad shape. We couldn’t leave Arch in his bed or he would roll over and start to choke so he has spent a few nights with us.

Aaron and Amy (congrats again guys) came over last night and helped bring us back into the adult world. We went out to eat and Arch was in a great mood for most of the meal. He spent most of the time flirting with the waitress and stating at a guy who wouldn’t take his cowboy hat off. When we got home everybody took turns wearing Arch out. He fought sleep but went to ned without too much of a fuss. Tonight he went to sleep relatively easily. If we’re lucky this will be the end of this round of sleep trouble.

Arch had another PAT evaluation last Friday. As usual he didn’t have any trouble with the tests. They all involved putting things in containers and dumping them back out again. Since that has been his favorite thing to do lately he picked up on it right away and impressed the PAT rep. It is really nice to be able to compare his development to a standard. We know he’s the greatest but it feels good to have somebody who is completely unrelated to us confirm it :-).
