Two becomes one?

Yesterday I wrote a little about Elise’s lack of napping. She’s never been what you would call “The World’s Best Sleeper”, but has been pretty decent about naps. We finally figured out a routine that works for her, found her good nap times (mid morning and early afternoon), and went about life. Over the weekend was when the nap drama began, and today was no exception.

Today I had one of those light bulb moments – what if she’s beginning to get ready to go to one nap per day instead of two? She’s 17 months, so right around “that age that is somehow set for when toddlers start dropping naps”. Currently she’s laying down in her crib with her lovey after starting to rub her eyes and yawn a lot. I know that if she is getting ready to drop a nap, it won’t be a smooth transition and therefore things around here will be pretty funky for a while.

I’ll have to keep an extra eye on her to try and circumvent the overtired induced meltdowns and also start figuring out when she wants to take that one nap (if that’s her aim). I’ll have to readjust my prayer routine, since I had it right on top of Elise’s morning nap. And then Little One will arrive and a whole new level of “readjusting” will occur. ;)
