SLEEP TRAUMA!!!





O' the madness! Ava went from being an AWESOME napper and night-time sleeper to fighting me at every turn (yes she's 2!). Friends and family kept telling me that maybe she had outgrown her need for an afternoon nap - so I documented for myself, as much as everyone else, the signs pointing to the fact that she still needs a nap!
BTW - I love the sullen look in this picture. She was having so much fun making her "Sleep Poster" with Daddy until the REALITY sunk in.

We (mostly I) feel your pain! Maci was not a good sleeper. She was sleeping with us just about every night for nine months because we couldn't figure her out! Good luck...(:

I love your blog and the reminder of what we have to look forward too. You have a beautiful family.

That is hillarious Nat! I mean not to you probably, but cute idea, and great expression by Ava. In my opinion, children should never be aloud to outgrow a nap. Speaking of naps I think I"ll take one right now.
