Friday morning I arrived at E's without my bag of book/iPad/notepad/knitting because I planned to immediately put ec in the van and drive him to our house. Well, you know the saying about the best-laid plans...E told me she had called the pediatrician's office for an appointment to see if ec had an earache. She remembered that es had had one with no apparent symptoms, so she thought maybe ec did and that's why his sleep at night is frequently interrupted. After a while they called back with a slot at noon, and E decided she would take the afternoon off. So there I was, with nothing to do when he fell asleep. It was funny, how the fail of my original plan seemingly left me unable to adjust on the fly. Later I realized we could have taken a walk or gone to my house to get something, but I just read the rest of Harry Potter #1, then started #2. Randy did wash our sheets and bring them over for me to dry, but he didn't arrive till after E left for the doctor's office, so I was unable to take full advantage of my free afternoon.
The doctor examined him, pronounced him fit as a fiddle, and suggested we may have trained him not to fall asleep unless he's being held. So I expect change is coming, as E and K decide how to respond.
