A One Nap Baby

It's official. Dutch is now only taking one nap a day (or less). The past couple of days he hasn't been napping at all, but before that he was perfectly content with taking one nap between 12pm and 1pm. He's also been refusing to sleep at night. We put him to bed between 7pm and 8pm and it never fails that if he cries loud and long enough Daddy will go and rescue him. I keep trying to convince Chris that Dutch is manipulating him, but he's just a big softie.

So, in conclusion, I will be getting even less done now than I was before.

Oh, sister. You need to stop your husband from doing that. He is doing it because it gets results. That is why children squeal, throw tantrums, etc. It is not worth it otherwise.

Plus, if you are consistent and get him on a schedule he will sleep and you will still get 2-3 hours in the afternoon. Talk to Carianne. She is great at the sleep thing and also throwing food thing.
