We've drastically changed my very strict (and quite awesome) routine. And quite unshockingly, the girls have not been napping much at all lately and have been quite hard to deal with. (I may have some bald spots from pulling out my hair!) But today! We played with Kelly and her adorable kids, then the girls went right to sleep! On time! Peacefully! I haven't heard a peep since.
But now I'm getting all paranoid! Are they still ok? They couldn't possibly be sleeping this well! I should go check on them! Then halfway up the stairs I convince myself of what a horrible idea it would be- never wake (or even come close to) waking sleeping babies.
I'm definately going in there at 4- they need to wake up by then anyway. But yay! for complete naps once again! (I hope I haven't jinxed it!)
I want to get one of those video monitors...where you have the screen in your room and can look in on them. I HATE to wake them up during a nap b/c heaven forbid they don't go back to sleep!
ReplyDeleteAhhhh yes- I have had episodes like that as well... Hailyn can't possibly be asleep for NINE hours! Then I'm awake and not sleeping..ahhh! the good news is it tends to go away after a while...promise! and yes,they are fine:)
ReplyDeleteYea! for naps, my kids slept great too!!! Thanks for a great day!!!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed some obviously much needed peace and quiet :) you deserve it!
ReplyDeleteWoo Hoo - napping! It worked! Yes, invest in a video monitor. They are great. We have one that has two camera - one for each room and you can flip back and forth when needed. It's great! Yay for napping girls!! I hope today brings the same simple happiness!
