Our Kids

Well after being in the house a few months I have finally decided what personality I want all the rooms to have.  In itself it sounds like a good thing but we all know that once I get a house “finished” I am ready to move.  The good news is that the backyard is such a nightmare that I might not be done with that for ages:)  So the first room on the books was the playroom, of course.  We went to IKEA and bought a bunch of stuff for the playroom and got most of it put in.  We still need to hang a few things tomorrow, clean the floors, move the carpets and whatnots but it is almost done.  I am so excited and I think the girls already love it.  We will post pics as soon as it is done.  Don’t be expecting anything fantastic, just more organized and functional for all our playtime.

Drumroll please……..the nap schedule is officially CRAZY! LOL! They napped twice a day on Thursday with two naps almost two hours in length and then went to bed at 645! Crazy. I thought that would put us squarely back into the getting up at 615, going to bed at 630 and two one hour naps a day but alas I was wrong.

Friday we had one two hour nap at 930 in the morning, after rising at a respectable 630AM and then we skipped any afternoon naps. They did play in their cribs for about 35 min while creating mondo poo poo in their diapies! I was wondering what all the laughing and jumping was about and then I noticed that the house had an odd aroma to it……

Anyhoo, after skipping the afternoon nap they went to bed a little cranky (since they had been cranky for two hours already) at 630PM. They got up at 630AM and we took them out for the morning and just got back, it is was around 1145 when they were put safely in their cribs without a peep. I figure if they are going to skip the afternoon nap maybe I should push the morning one as much as I can but that is difficult seeing as every activity we do puts them to sleep! Riding in the car, going in the stroller, sitting in our highchairs, riding Buster the dog in the backyard…..
