Day at the Aquarium



Our season passes to the aquarium are SUCH a great investment! We haven't been in a while and we are in the middle of trying to go to one nap...nightmare. Anyway, she LOVED the fish. She seriously stood there and looked and talked to the fish for about 20 minutes.
As for the nap business (this is more for my record than anything but if you want to read about it, please stay with me)...This morning, she went down at 9 as usual, talked until 10:30 and then slept until almost 12 (thus the trip to the aquarium...I was trying to find something to entertain us). Up to this point, she woke up at 7 or 7:30, went down for her am nap at 9, slept until 10:30 or 11, went back down for pm nap at 1:30 and slept until 3 or 3:30 and then bedtime is still 7. Over the past 2 weeks, she would go a couple of days and take monster am AND pm naps (I now think it was a result of a growth spurt) and then go a couple of days only taking one good am OR pm nap. She is still sleeping 12-13 hours at night. If any of you have pearls of wisdom in how to move to one nap, please post them! I have been holding on to both for dear life but know she really is ready...I love her am nap as it is my time to take a shower and do my quiet time. Oh well. As it stands, I am going to start tomorrow trying to push her nap time. Hopefully she can make it until about 12:30 and then can take a good afternoon nap. At least that is my overall goal. To get her back to going down for a her one nap at 12:30 or 1. It will help that we have Little Gym to push us both tomorrow! I am sure it will take many days or weeks to get us to a consistent schedule again. She is pretty great about telling me when she is ready to go to sleep. We shall see! Thanks for reading and for any input you may have!
