Bummer

So, it looks like Micah has officially given up his morning nap. It was pretty sudden. Last week he took an hour nap in the morning and a 2 hour nap in the afternoon. The past couple days, he will have nothing to do with the morning nap. Selfishly, I was hoping he would keep this schedule forever :) I normally get ready during that time, but I'll figure something out. I may have to get up earlier (the horror!). Though I do have to say now that he's not napping in the morning, he's sleeping later...til about 8:00 instead of 7:00. I know some of you reading this are probably like "Shutup!" I know I'm lucky. I guess it's just another sign that Micah is growing up, and I want him to stay like this forever! Of course I say that during every stage of his life...except that waking up every 2 hours thing...I was so glad when THAT was over :)

There are benefits to the no-morning-nap stage. Now, I have more time to get out of the house. It used to be that I had to do everything outside of the home by 9:30 to get back for nap. Then he didn't get up until 11:30 or so and I wouldn't have a good time to do anything else until after 4:00 because of lunch and afternoon nap. I can have more time with my son. So, maybe it's not such a bummer after all.

Once Jackson gave up the two-nap routine I would put him to sleep between the two times and he would sleep for 3-4 hours. I actually enjoy the one-nap thing better as well. Easier to go out and about like you said!
