a mother’s nerve
in the latest attempt to ‘journal’…. max took two nice naps yesterday; i approached it a little differently this time, reading a book, singing a lullaby and then put him down. we did this this morning as well, a very nice 1.5 hour nap. Long enough to get the tree down and start organizing the ornaments.
the afternoon nap, not so well…. there is a particular protest cry that max does when it is clear that he is not going to nap. it works my last nerve. it’s a whine/wail/cry with periods of silence that make you think he just might bring it around. I attempted to lay down myself for about 30 minutes and now after one hour of no sleep for max; i am downstairs, im going to eat my lunch and i just made some coffee. well, i suppose now i will have to go get him; the protest is just that convincing… and by our sleep guy rules, it has been an hour.
anyone up for babysitting????
