Last night was a pretty hectic night for us with getting up to Matthew several times. It's not that he doesn't sleep through the night, as in general he does. Rather he sleep crawls. This in itself is perhaps not a problem, after all he has warm sleep suits and is kept in the cot by the rails, and those are in turn padded by the rail cover. Really the problem is that he runs out of space to crawl in.

Every so often, over the baby monitor's we will hear Matthew calling out. Upon entering his room we will find him up against the rails trying to crawl through them. The thing is, he is always asleep. On top of that, he remains asleep as we pick him up and return him to his sleeping position. He settles into a comfortable position and everything is quiet until the next time he goes on a crawl-about.

Matthew is our first, so we don't know if this is a common thing amongst babies. We are not concerned by this, but it is curious and more than a little entertaining. Bless his cottons, he brings us sunshine on even the most cloudy day (or night in this case).
