This is how Peter spent his 4th of July... well, the morning and afternoon, at least. He was a wee bit overstimulated by nightfall and needed a dark quiet room so he could properly collapse into a little (but growing!) heap. Fortunately the fireworks 2 blocks away didn't wake him up.
He got a little overstimulated again tonight, actually. His little motor starts going and he's laughing and giggling away, and then WHAM! The good times are over and his parents are left trying to find a sensory deprivation tank for him. All the baby stores give you a list about what the first-time parent needs to register for, and not one said you'd need a sensory deprivation tank. Feh! Are they afraid he'll turn into a little Altered States-style ape-baby? After all the "I'm tired but I ain't sleeping" crying, an ape-baby might be a nice change. Why, I could stroke the hair on his back to get him calmed down...
I kid. Peter's not too hard to deal with when he's cranky. We usually find the cure to what ails him. Usually.
