I took the losers way out.

We haven't switched Maggie over yet because there's no rush - but now I'm anxious about how she'll do. Let us know if you figure out any good tips :)Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11451797365712728579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-386400953915493212.post-3617381933551468922009-10-16T06:31:40.871-07:002009-10-16T06:31:40.871-07:00Have you checked out the Women's Colony yet? h...Have you checked out the Women's Colony yet? http://thewomenscolony.com/origin-myth/<br />That is my dream alternate universe. I know where you are at right now, my youngest gave up napping well before the age of two just when his brothers were both in afternoon school. I cried harder when I finally gave up locking him in his room than he had leading up to my surrender. It's exhausting I know, but you move on to the next stage somehow and figure out when you can get the me time. Yesterday I drove 2 hours to the city and back by myself and didn't make it home in time to get dinner.

She absolutely will not go to sleep on her own. So, I'm feeling your pain AND Myra's! ;) Both my older girls stopped napping before their 2nd birthday, and neither slept in a crib, so I'm not much help :( How about I just pray for ya?Sugarplum Creations Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15404300168941549805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-386400953915493212.post-80878125961878475802009-10-15T19:51:47.216-07:002009-10-15T19:51:47.216-07:00I always layed with my oldest too, but then when s...I always layed with my oldest too, but then when she was this age I jsut told her I had things to do & if she needed me I would be right there but not to get out of bed & fall asleep... she totally got it. Plus she has always slept 10 - 12 hours at a time. This one though... there is no reasoning with her! My mom of course tells me that she is nothing compared to what I was as a kid... can you say payback - great huh! Thank goodness I am one of those people that only needs a few hours of sleep. ha! Today I decided to try no nap to see if that helps... I think I'll give that a whirl for a few days. Hopefully it will not make her a monster in the afternoon then. We'll see.... :)Myyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03248342096609316500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-386400953915493212.post-89889381761778779752009-10-15T18:57:56.793-07:002009-10-15T18:57:56.793-07:00I'm with you on that 8th day.

My almost 2 year old will not fall asleep without me in the room... I have tried letting her cry it out but she gets so upset that she will not calm down. I have an almost 4 year old & a brand new one too so I can't just let her scream for hours. It is so frustrating!!! Oh & did I mention that once I get her to sleep & sneak out she then wakes up in the middle of the night... usually around 3 or so & comes into my bed. Uggghhhh!!! If you find a sure fire way of getting your little guy to sleep, please PLEASE share the knowledge... Good Luck! : )Myyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03248342096609316500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-386400953915493212.post-11316879961426655412009-10-15T17:19:17.546-07:002009-10-15T17:19:17.546-07:00When you find a way to get that 8th day and have i...When you find a way to get that 8th day and have it all about you...most definitely share your secret!

What a pretty cover...although Edward's face gracing the front of any magazine is pure perfection. <br /><br />Sorry Jason won't stay in bed. I'll be praying for you that this phase passes quickly (I know, only to be replaced by another.) Seems as if there have been several mommy bloggers complaining about their roaming children these days. Isaiah was never much of a roamer, he usually went to bed pretty easily (BUT woke up 2-4 times a night until the age of 3). Hope you get some much needed ME time soon.<br /><br />♥jennykate77https://www.blogger.com/profile/06148466048132599366noreply@blogger.com
