Sleeping Time

Abbie has decided not to take naps anymore. As she told Riley the other day, "I am not taking anymore naps." It has been quite the adjustment at our house. Not only does she refuse to take a nap, but she has a hard time falling asleep at night. At first she was also waking up about every hour during the night, and than having a hard time going back to sleep. Everyone in the house was cranky. Things are getting better though. She still gets a little fussy around 4-5 o'clock in the afternoon, but after dinner she is full of energy again. Here are some pictures of Abbie sleeping.

Occasionally the kids refuse to go to sleep, so we have to take Riley and put him in our bed. The other night when this happened Abbie proceeded to fall asleep in Riley's Bed
This is Abbie and Daddy sleeping after church. One of the last naps Abbie took!

This is Abbie falling asleep at 6pm in her high chair. This was the during the whole phasing out of her nap time.

Those who know my daughter, know she loves books. She always takes at least one book to bed with her. There was a time she had about ten books with her at bed time. We quickly learned to limit it to just two books, or she would never go to bed because she would be to busy reading her books. The worst was when she woke everyone up in the house at 3 am singing Twinkle Little Star at the top of her lungs from one of her books.
