That's it! She's done...

...with naps, that is *sob* I can't believe my baby girl is ready to stop taking naps!

For the past several weeks she has been waking up at the crack of dawn...and slowly, it has gotten earlier and earlier! This week she was waking up before my alarm would go off at 6:15 a.m.! I'd wake up and see the lights on in the living room (at least she's quiet). She's so funny. She'll get herself a little snack, turn on her computer and play her little games, maybe watch a little t.v. (I'm always very careful to make sure the t.v. is left on Noggin or Disney Channel before I go to bed at night since she started doing this.)

So we decided to quit her naps and see if that will help her sleep in once in a while. I hope it works!

So nap time has turned into "quiet time" (*gasp* I'm turning into my mother). NO t.v. or computer during nap time. She can read books or color. It went okay today, but she gets bored quickly. I think we might start going to the library once a week so she has new books to look at.

Anyhow, my baby girl is growing up *hmph*

I'm sorry. It's so hard sometimes to let them grow up. But each stage is wonderful and enjoyable.

I will let you know next time I scrapbook!! (sadly, it's not often enough) It would be fun to have you.

It's funny, kids are so anxious to grow up (stop taking naps, be independent, etc), but sometimes I'm ready to be a kid again!

I can't believe how fast kids grow up. We have rest time at our house too, because I need that time to get something (anything) done!
