Sweet Sleep

Miss. Camryn decided that she did not want to partake in a morning and/or afternoon nap this day. Mom and Dad had to work in the basement and we guess Camryn wanted to help. Well, after a hard day of playing Dad brought Camryn upstairs to eat dinner at 5:00 pm. Mom came up soon after and was Camryn ever fussy but Mom and Dad had to make dinner. All of a sudden a quiet came over the house. We turned around and she was snoozing. She was out like a light. Mom put her in bed and woke her up at 6:15. Luckily she still went to bed at 7:30.

On a totally different night, ok 2 nights later she really didn't want to go to bed and thrashed all about her crib. This is how we found her before we went to bed. Generally, when she is mad about going to bed all the animals, blankets, etc are thrown outside her crib.

I am so thankful that Camryn goes to sleep so easy. Anywhere from 7:15 - 7:30 I take her into her room. Attempt to read a book and then commence singing two songs. (Usually Rock a by baby and Amazing Grace). At the end of the second song I lay her on her pillow with her bunny blanket and she rolls to her stomach and goes to sleep. There may be a little cry out but she is generally done by the time I leave her room and get to the couch in the living room. (I wish I went to sleep that easily).
