New Routine

For several weeks now, Emma has been so excited to learn new things that we simply must start our day around 5am (or earlier). As you can imagine, Mom and Dad are not quite as excited about this. We tried several approaches, from letting her fuss (which turned into crying) to trying to rock her back to sleep to trying to bring her to bed with us...nothing worked. Emma was wide awake and raring to go! ...until about 8am when she's ready for a nap as well as long afternoon naps at daycare. It's been a long few weeks.

Today, Emma's caregivers suggested that it might be time for Emma to go to one long nap in the day and push her bedtime back a bit so that she sleeps in a bit longer in the morning for us. We're up for trying anything, so we're going to try lunch at 11 followed by napping from 1130 to 130 and then in the evening bath time at 800 followed by bed at 830. We'll let you know how it goes!
