Naptime Part the First

Posted by Susie Felber

NAPTIME!

 

Will he fall asleep? Won't he? Check back in all this week to see the next installment and the thrilling conclusion of NAPTIME! In personal news, my mom came and we partied in the Hawk all weekend long. But seriously, we had a fab time and she helped me so I could go exercise, which I so need these days for mental and physical well being. I particularly liked having wine and crackers and chatting after Hugo went to sleep. She drove me nuts at times and I became cranky, but she deserves me as much as I deserve her. As of late this afternoon my handsome Brit man unit is back from the UK and I'm feeling no pain. Hugo was thrilled and didn't want him out of his sight. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful husband I fear saying it will making a bolt fly from the sky and zap one of us squarely in the rump, so instead, I'll say, yeah, he's alright, I guess.

OK, I did the treadmill tonight so I've got to shower before getting into bed lest I scare the man back to the sheep of Yorkshire. 

Night night Internet.

xoxo,

Susie

i wish you luck with naptime. My guy is down to one (15mos) and we're wondering if it's too much since he takes almost 2 hours to fall asleep at night. who knew getting babies to sleep would be such an ordeal.

Ha. Excersice AND cheese and crackers and wine. That is my kind of working out. The Coop has been all out of sorts as I indicated previously, and I have been told by those in the know that in addition to possibly being due to a cold or teething that it might just be a "phase". I love that answer. It might be due to the tides on the moon, a shift in the aurora borealis, or signals from space.

BSB -- yeah we're down to one nap too and it's only just become not 100% easy.  And two hours to fall asleep at night -- yea, that's extreme!  What time is he going to bed?

MLM -- I read your wonderful blog and think the phase happened at the same time so either they are collaborating or it's the age/teething/space signals. :)
