Example: during "nap time " today he; fell off the toilet and bumped his back on the wall (and managed to break a vase in the process), fell off our bed and bonked his head on the stationary bike. This one about killed me, I seriously thought his brains were going to pop out of his skull. A few hours later he pulled the blender out and it shattered all over the floor. Thank goodness I stocked up on grapes today because let me tell you they were about the only thing that could comfort this lil' kid. Man I'm exhausted just writing about this!

nap time
I live for Grant's naps. He's out for a good 3-4 hours everyday so it's plenty of time for me to get things done around this place. We play play play in the mornings and have a blast but somedays 1:00 just can NOT come fast enough. Today I experienced reason #482 on why I hate living in an apt. Grant was tucked snug away in bed when all of the sudden- "eeeeeerrrrrrr, clank clank clank". Got to love maintenance men at all hours of the day. So much for our nap. Anyway I came to the conclusion that for Grant's safety he NEEDS naps.

Ah, this post totally made me laugh. I miss those blissful afternoons when Savanna actually napped. THOSE were the days!
Man what a day! Agreed. Kids need their naps for many reasons....only one of which is your own sanity. That must have been the longest day ever...for both of you.
How do you get him to usually take a 3-4 hour nap? That is my question! I am lucky if Nathan naps for 2 hours.
Ruth-the trade off is that he doesn't go to bed until 8-8:30. I know it's late but he will still sleep for 10-11 hours at night and this way David can play with him too. Honestly when he went to just one nap he started sleeping longer (during naps and night) I'm not sure why but he's been so much easier with just one nap.
