Shea and I have been struggling a bit lately with naps. I NEED him to nap. Need, need, need it! However, he's pretty sure that he's done napping now. I can still convince him some days and he'll take a good nap - then there are days where he'll lay there for 2 hours and not sleep at all. Stubborn little thing - I wonder where he gets that? But I've outsmarted him!! It's called quiet time!!! I don't know how it works, but put him on the bed, give him some books and call it quiet time and he'll fall asleep every time! :-) tee hee!!
Reading??
Nope!! Sawing logs. :-)

How hilarious! That really is a brilliant idea because if you are even the smallest bit tired, a book will put you to sleep every time! I guess he can't read yet though...so maybe it's the thought of reading that puts him to sleep. Hmm...
ReplyDeleteQuiet time is way better for us too than nap time. I love how Shea loves books and can still fall asleep.
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome! I'm going to remember that for when I have a lil' one.
ReplyDeleteThose pictures of Shea are adorable! I'm amazed that he keeps his place, even when he's snoozing. What a cutie!! And such a clever move on your part, Jenna!
ReplyDeleteHa, ha--Ke'ola is 9 and still has "quiet time". The best part is that she has no siblings and doesn't know any different yet. I love the mom-moments that make you feel clever!!!
