to the beat....

lately the little one has had the hardest time with naps....he refuses....it takes me thirty minutes to put the guy down and then he usually sleeps for only twenty minutes....and i know he is tired...because he gets these absolutely adorable crimson raccoon rings around his little almond eyes....and he just stares with this blank stare at the walls...not to mention that he gets cranky....if i am lucky he will take one two hour nap...usually not until the late afternoon....

the solutions we have found are as follows: 1. techno....oh yes the munchkin gets put into his swing while daddy is working out to his techno beats....inevitably camden will fall right to sleep while his tiny body sways to the beat blasting throughout the house....2. errands....i have discovered that if i plan my errands during what would be camden's nap time he passes out in the car and i can usually get about two hours of running around in....

i can't complain about either solution because number one is the cutest ever....and number two allows me to get stuff done! silly little man.... who just happens to be the cutest thing ever! (i can say that about my child, it is an unwritten mommy rule)...

  1. Both of my kiddos went thru a 20 minute nap phase. Makes ya crazy. But then they re-adjust, thankfully.

  2. Addison was the same way for a while. I had to put her in her swing and put it on high for her to fall asleep, and they she wouldn't wake up until I stopped the swing. It is like magic! BTW, love the shades!
