Not having naps is exhausting, wouldn't you know it? She has not had nap time for 3 days now. She has fallen asleep on my lap right before dance class while reading books, and tonight on my lap watching cheetahs chase gazelles. She was honestly too tired/overwhelmed to enjoy the fall festival. She liked watching everyone, but didn't want to do anything. The second I mentioned going home she said, yes. Not cranky, just not a lot of energy. Crowds can overwhelm her. We have been having quiet times though, where I do my Bible study and she plays in her room. We read books, color, and honestly she has been playing by herself and singing a lot. But she just has trouble staying awake if she is still or quiet for long. She has been sleeping until 6:30, so I think it's going well. I still might let her have naps sometimes, but I'm liking the later wake-ups, so we will see. We will definitely need some more time to adjust, because we get pretty tired as the day wears on without having such long, quiet breaks in the afternoon.
I woke her up and took her to dance class. She didn't mind too much.
We were going to take a bath, but she couldn't make it. She looks so peaceful. Just crawled up on me and snuggled her head in my arm. :)
This is from earlier today. She had on a FD bag (it's like a reusable grocery bag stuff) and was being a ghost. We just had the carpets cleaned so there wasn't much she could run into.
