This is Summer.
It is 3:15 in the AFTERNOON and besides the 20 minute nap she had in the car this morning, she has not slept allllll day long. And as much as I love her and love having her company in the kitchen, her poor little brain needs a rest from her full and very stimulating environment. Plus, I have things that I need to concentrate on and get done and I am not gonna lie- I really just need a break. Just a little one where I can accomplish ...anything. I love you baby girl, but you are growing and learning every waking moment and it is not good for either of us if you don't sleep enough during the day.
It is 3:15 in the afternoon and if it were up to him, his nap would last alllll afternoon. And as much as I love him getting such a good nap, our bedtime has been turned upside down and our whole evening has been lost to the effort of getting him to sleep and instead of enjoying our time together at the end of the day, Sean and I are beginning to dread it. Crashing into bed at 11pm without getting any time together and with dishes and laundry left undone is no way to end the day and so we are cutting his afternoon nap down in hopes that bedtime will be a happier time in our life. I love you and all your endless energy Elliott, but it is not good for either of us if you sleep too much during the day.
