Scratching

The other night after Connor woke up to eat, I laid him back down in his crib to go to sleep. He wasn't really feeling like sleeping though, and wanted to play a bit. I, however, was dead tired and went back to bed. A few minutes later I could hear a "scratch, scratch, scratch". I tried for a minute or so to figure out where the noise was coming from. After a few minutes, I got up and realized it was Connor scratching the bumper on his crib. He wasn't asleep, but he was content to lay there and enjoy the new sound and feelings he has just discovered. After about 15 minutes of me trying to tune it out, though, I finally had to get up and move him away from the side so I could get some sleep.
