Narcoleptic Grace

Grace loves her sleep and has always been a great napper.  For the past few months, however, taking a nap caused her not to be tired at bedtime, but without a nap, she was quite cranky by dinner.  We faced a big dilemma.  In the end, the nap was phased out.  Here are some pictures of Grace dealing with the transition.

In the Computer Chair

On the Floor in the Middle of Playing
(Kyle thought it was funny to play around/over her.)

 Kyle "playing" on top of Grace.

Grace being rudely awoken by Kyle's "playing" which we soon realized was actually a bite.

Kyle got in on the action one day (or lack of).

Now for the finale. . . . .


The STAIRS!


Thankfully, she's made it through.  We are now nap free and cranky free (as much as a 3 year old can be).

I can't stop laughing; that is hilarious (though top of the stairs a bit scary)! I'm glad you have such a willig little sleeper.

Those pictures are PRICELESS! I love her just falling over in the middle of playing passed out on the floor! That transition from nap to no nap is pretty rough and usually happens sooner then mom would like, glad you made it through.

I wanted to add my own comment--- so funny! I laughed so much at this post! The stairs and Kyle playing on top of her are my favorite!
