Ahh.. naptime! (or as I like to call it...the 1-2 hours where I can hurry up and scramble to get the housework done before cooking dinner.)
I have a soon-to-be-two year old. She's not my firstborn, so you would have thought I knew what to expect when she came along. Not so fast!
When she was a newborn, she didn't cry. She shrieked and shrieked and SHRIEKED! We got used to that. It fit her personality. She has always made sure that we know her every emotion. Then, when she was about eight weeks old, I went back to work. Being the sweetheart that she is, she timed sleeping through the night to begin at that age. Unfortunately...it didn't last.
She chose the age of four months to be the time where she'd wake up during the night. That "brief" phase lasted until she was 20 months old. Are you kidding me?!
That's okay. I'm getting used to my uninterrupted sleep. It would be even more enjoyable if I didn't get woken up between 5/5:30 every...single...day.
Oh well! She may not enjoy sleeping as much as I do, but those early morning snuggles are worth every second of wakefulness.
