Naptime at Our House


Naptime routine goes like this: (because I know you really don't care, but someday I'll want to look back and read this post and long for the good 'ol days)
1- Eat lunch.
2- Read 2-3 books together on the couch.
3- Put Ollie in swing, with paci. Take T upstairs. Do business after arguing over whether or not he needs to do business in the potty.
4- Return to room sans pants (who needs 'em?) Wrap kid in blankie... bounce continuously on big exercise ball saying, "Close your eyes!" until he relaxes, lets go, and falls asleep.
5- Mommy gets about an hour to blog or sleep or whatever.
6- Ollie awakens and wants to nurse. Ollie then continues nap on Mommy's lap (as in picture above) while Mommy works on computer OR both crash on bed until T wakes up.



T asleep. Still won't stay with his head on the pillow for too long.
Ollie asleep. Without the swaddle, he likes his arms up over his head or sticking straight out. Still swaddling at night, but night is a different story...
Oh, and excuse the unsnapped Onesie... it was hot that day.



Can we say "BedHead"?


T is usually a bit grouchy when he wakes up. But if he has his brother nearby, he livens up and smiles more quickly.
