To sleep or not to sleep. That's the question

Our lovely daughter is a very energetic little girl. This is most obvious after the 8PM bath when it should be time to sleep. Apparently it is much more fun to play with mother and father than trying to fall asleep. After some post-bath exciting games like bed spinning, handkerchief peek-a-poo, and Swedish lessons (trying to sound like father) it is impossible to get the little baby sleepy. Fortunately there is always the Beatles. We find that she loves to dance with beatles in Papa's arms (which is Papa's favorite as well). Usually it takes 5-6 songs then she would have leaned her head on papa's chest and stayed deeply asleep with a smile.

Sometimes even Beatles does not work, another trick (or, maybe we should say a "method") which turned out to be very efficient, is to put her into the stroller, put on the mosquito net, and take her out for a walk in the garden, even though it is dark outside. The fresh air, and the beautiful frog melody in the lake are obviously very tranquilizing, it never takes more than half a lap before she falls asleep.

Until that moment, we could finally give a relieve breath, and smile to each other and rush home. Now it's time for an episode of "Apprentice"! Yeah!
