Day 999. Last night I went to bed at 12:40 am. Tammy joined us in bed pretty early, slept there for a while, then Randy took her back to her bed. She returned later, and Emmy came in the early morning hours. However, he was already up at 6:30, together with his sister. Way too early!

Day 998. Last night I went to bed at 12:30. A few minutes earlier Emmy had walked up to and asked for milk, then he went to bed in my bed to wait for me. By the time I went to bed, he was fast asleep, and so I was able to take him back to his own bed. This night was a little different in that Tammy did not come to us.

Day 997. Last night I went to bed at midnight. Tammy joined us in bed at some point, and Emmy came at 6:30 in the morning. It wasn't long before he had woken up his sister, and then they were off to see what trouble they could get into today.
