Go to sleep!!!

10pm

Mummy: Xiang, let's go to bedroom!
Xiang: 上去....上去 !
(go up, go up)

10.10pm
Xiang: mummy,pillow,pillow 。。。
mummy,chut chut,chut chut 。。。
(note:chut chut = paci)

10.12pm
Xiang: 开barney ,mummy 拿
(he wants to watch Barney & ask me to take down from cabinet)

10.30 pm
He slipped out of bed, open the cabinet, looking for his next toy.
Mummy: 好了,睡觉了!
(just trying my luck to ask him to sleep)
Xiang: 不要,不要!
开baby,mummy 拿
[Luck was not on my side as usual. He asked to watch YourBabyCanRead. Well, it's a good DVD, so ok ...]

10.50pm
He slipped down from bed again, open my closet this time.
Mummy: 好了,mummy 累了,睡觉了!
Xiang: 不要,不要!mummy 拿 book ... book
[Reading is good. So, ok ... again]

11.10pm
Mummy: OK, let's sleep now!
Xiang: 不要,不要! 下去,下去 !
(he wants to go downstairs!)
Mummy & Daddy: NO! SLEEP NOW!!!
(with very stern voice)
Xiang: 哇! 哇!! 哇!!!
(crying so loud that he woke up his sister. )
Mummy: ok, ok, ok …
(I gave up and let him do whatever he liked - usually played with hankies from my closet)


11.25pm
Mummy: Xiang, let's sleep now ....
(very sleepy and with little energy left)
Xiang: mummy 拿…

sigh ... all this can go on and on ...
so when he reached the limit, i'll just slam shut everything, ignored his screaming/crying and off the bedroom light. But, because of he cried so hard, sometimes he'll have bad dreams.

I have no idea how to train him to sleep once step into bedroom ???

haha maybe I'm so heart harded type mom. After night milk and 1/2 hours playing in bedroom, I'll off the light and sleep next tom my girl. Usually she will dose off very fast if she is tired. Or she will play a while, talking alone until I ask her to stop and be quiet. Maybe you should just off the light and make the room dark. :)
