I wonder what new trick he will try tonight.

Hugs and Kisses x 5 = Delaying bedtime
I wrote before how at bedtime, Collin would pull out just one more book to read so he would delay having to get in bed. Each time I would finish that "last book", he would pull out another one from the shelf and say "one more". He does not do that as much anymore. He has graduated to pure manipulation! He figured out that we cannot pass up a great hug and a kiss from him. Now, just before he climbs into bed, he has to give each of us a hug and a kiss. That part is not new. What's new is he continues to go back and forth until we stop it. We first try, "ok, just one more and then it's time for you to climb in bed". He turns and smiles with that adorable, "I love you" smile and leans in for "just one more" hug and a kiss. Last night, he must have done this 5 times before Daddy told him that either Daddy was putting him in bed or Collin could do it. Collin chose to do it himself....of course he did, he is 2!
