In our little family, sleep is very important. Josephine sleeps either at home or at 28 Street. My sisters think I should get out more with the baby and take her out when it is naptime so she can sleep in the stroller. Well this little girl does not fall asleep in the stroller anymore. She used to fall asleep during our walks and I would carry her up the stairs and into her crib. But she really enjoys her outdoors time now and is usually invigorated rather than sedated. She loves when the wind blows in her face and loves to dance while I sing Wiggle songs out loud. We like to walk to the bookstore. I like going to Rite Aid, but Josephine has a problem with browsing and long lines for the cashier. She likes to be in motion. Sometimes we go to the park and she swings around for a while. Sometimes we go to the school by our house and watch the kids play during their recess period. But when it is time to sleep, we both enjoy being in the bed. All her naps are taken in the crib. At night though, she sleeps with me. I can't bear to have her so far away from me. And plus, since I'm still breastfeeding, it is so convenient for us to have her right next to me.
By the way, the 2-nap days were going really well, then we had a 3-nap day and it screwed up her schedule. We had a 2-nap day today, but only because she missed her morning nap. Hopefully tomorrow we will be back to 2 naps. I guess these things happen and we just have to be flexible.
