Time for Change

Today, I’ve decided to make some changes to V’s napping schedule. I’ve been doing some research on sleep at her age and learned that on average, they sleep about 12 hrs a night, with 2-3 hrs nap during the day. Well, she is not at this point. In fact, she sleeps about 10.5-11 hrs and has 1-2 he’s nap.
I’m currently in her room on the rocker just sitting in the dark, waiting to see if ahe will fall back asleep. I was supposed to catch her before she woke but I missed it. So now, after rocking her a bit, I put her back down. She complained at first but I shushed her and she stopped. She is playing right now though I doubt she will go back to sleep. I don’t know. But what I know is that I don’t want her napping in the swing anymore. I want her to get used to the crib again.

V had her morning nap in the crib and woke up happy. For once, she didn’t cry or complain. I picked her up, changed her and put her in the carseat to head over to JGO’s and she was very happy…until 15 min into the drive. She started to get upset and cry. Not sure how long this will last for, but I hope not long.

While we were there, V took another nap. During that time, I had Mateo and Eva sitting on my lap looking through videos and photos of Z and B on my iTouch. When V woke up, E wanted to come upstairs with me to get V. She wanted to play with V so much that I offered for her to sit with her on the rug.
Let’s just say that the rest was history. The opportunity to take a group shot of the kids presented itself and G whipped put his camera and took some. Mind were not so good because of lighting. Anyway, the kids were so sweet. V was very content, if not happy, to be the centre of attention.
