New Nap Schedule

The last few weekends have been long days with Hailey only napping in the afternoon and Hunter napping in the morning and then getting cranky the rest of the day, but never really falling asleep. We decided we needed to switch up what we were doing for our own sanity.

The kids now both stay awake all morning instead of taking a nap at 8, and will play and run around until noon when they take their only nap of the day until about 2/230. The transition was a bit harsh, but we've found ourselves now comfortable in the new schedule and it's working great! The later nap is helping the kids stay up later (7pm on some nights!) which in turn means they aren't waking up at 330am. They've been peacefully sleeping in the mornings at least until 5, if not later on occasion, which allows us to get ready for work in the mornings without tripping over two toddlers who think the bathroom is their's to explore! Of course that isn't every morning... but when that does happen it is so nice to take a shower that is longer than 5 mins.

With the swapping of our nap time, it was pretty clear that it was a change for them when they fell asleep in the middle of lunch at the same time! So much for the quesadillas I had made.
