First nap in his big boy bed...

Henry finally slept in his big boy bed last week! He's now taken 2 naps there, and hopefully there will be many more to come. Once he gets used to taking naps in his bed we will try and switch him to sleeping there at night too. We'll see how it goes.


Lately Henry has been having trouble falling asleep during nap time. He's clearly tired, but he just won't relax to fall asleep. Some days he falls asleep easily, and other days we engage in a battle of the wills. As you can imagine we are both pretty stubborn, so this can last awhile. He screams & kicks & has even taken to using his head to smack me in the face. Lots of time outs & spanks for Henry because of this. At this point in my pregnancy what I want more than anything is for Henry to take a nice afternoon nap. When it doesn't happen I just want to pull my hair out. Luckily, John's tennis season is now over, so he will be home early to give me some relief if I need it. I hope this little phase passes quickly.
