Everyone was still sleeping when I got home and Ruger was more than happy to join them. He is a non-stop running machine until he gets in the house and then he’s suddenly a limp noodle.

Both boys and Ruger end up sleeping with us by morning and, as you can see, they take up so much room that Seth and I end up hanging over the edge of the bed and battling them for some covers. But, they’re just so sweet and cuddly at night, that I don’t really mind. In no time at all, they probably won’t want anything to do with nerdy old mom so I’m going to smother them as much as possible until then.
