How's y'all's ('y'all's' totally passed spellcheck!) sunday going? Hopefully all is well! Over here at the "B" Hive we have had a pretty great day so far. It's a sunday afternoon so that usually means that I'm thinking about sleep. :) Although...who am I kidding? In these days I'm living in right now...sleep is something I'm always thinking about. Having two high energy daughters and a new baby boy that loooooves to eat, sleep isn't always something that comes as often as I would like. "I love sleep. I wanna wake up just so I can go to sleep again." One million points to the reader who can tell me where that quote is from.
The kids all slept through the night, well...they eventually did after the long drawn out bedtime routines were finished up and we actually got them in the bed. Lately I've found myself getting frustrated with getting the girls in bed. With all of the
I'm not saying that I've been perfect about it since then, nor will I be, but I am saying I'm going to try. So last night...even though it was later than bedtime should be...I read the book Ava chose. Which just so happened to be the longest one she has in her room. She's a smart girl. And when Lyla was calling out my name (still) at 10:15pm I went in to check on her...and got her a cup of water. Now I'm not planning to create bad habits here. There will still be times that I will need to say, "No, not tonight." But I'm going to try to respond in love and with a grateful heart instead of being impatient and frustrated initially. That's a big challenge. Do you have any suggestions to help out with bedtime? If so drop a comment off for me, will ya?
So here we are this afternoon...a lazy sunday afternoon, and you know what I think sunday afternoons were made for? Naps. Who doesn't love a good nap? Ok maybe my kids and your kids don't, but everyone else does, right? Time for a poll. What have you found to be the ideal length of napping time for your sunday afternoon? I'm curious...and I'll be checking the poll results in just a bit...after I wake up from my nap. :)
