Re: Can't sleep without it!

Oh Kori, that's too funny! Owen has become the same way lately. Now

that he's wearing the brace for naps (he's finally taking a scheduled

nap!) and nights, he associates the brace with sleeping. Funny thing

is that he fights the brace at naptime (because he knows what it

means) but as soon as it's on, he wants to be put into bed. Maybe he

realizes that the sooner he gets to sleep, the sooner he'll wake up

and can have the brace removed! LOL!
