SLEEPING BEAUTY
This week has been a rough one! Sophie's been waking up SO CRANKY from naps and bedtime. And, she's been pooping in her pants - sick! She has just been an unhappy child and it was really stressing me out. So, I'm thinking...what are we doing wrong? Are we not giving her enough love and attention? Is she getting molars? NO - we've been doing lots of fun things lately and I can't feel any teeth coming. So, my next thought. She's exhausted! She's always been my little clockwork schedule girl (with sleep) and this summer, we've gotten way off. So, I decided to get back to the schedule, even if it means sacrificing some fun. Yesterday, she was down by 11:00 AM and she and I both got an hour and a half long nap. She was such a sweet girl when she woke up and happy the rest of the day. She slept in a little today, but I still had her down for a nap by noon. She's still asleep, but I'm guessing she'll wake up sweet and happy again. After church, we'll get her down as soon as we can, but from now on, she's napping by noon and in bed between 7:30 and 8:00.
Wish us luck!

During the summer it is so easy to get off schedule. Kids seem to do so much better on a schedule. We have that same issue with Ally. I hope that was the issue with Sophie, so it's an easy "fix".
Ellie has been the same way. Her sched is all out of wack this summer. She is a mess! If I nap her she is in bed late, like 9 or 10, but if I don't nap her she is a mess and still won't fall asleep till 9 or 10. Never ever has she been this way. Most of the problem is me being so busy though and so I am cracking down and we are not rushing after dinner anymore but taking it easy and spending lots of time prepping for bed and hitting the sack by 7:30, 8. Church is the worst though for naps! Good luck. I am right there with you.
