Happy Napper

My boys are similar in so many ways. They are both stubborn. They both love to bust my chops. They both love me, Matt and each other (among others). They both open their mouths to give kisses (Matthew is getting better, but it's still a slimy experience).

One area where my boys are total opposites - napping. Not so much in the taking of them (Matthew gave up on naps years ago), but more in the way they wake up from them. IF IF IF Matthew takes a nap, there's a good chance he's going to wake up cranky. It's not pretty. But Noah, he's a different story. When he gets in some good napping, this is how he wakes up.
And he'll hang out and talk to himself, play with his crib toys, and generally just be a happy baby when he wakes up. It's a nice change.
Now, the other way that my boys differ is in sleeping through the night. Noah needs to put in some serious work on that.

Oh how I wish my boys still napped. Sigh.

My daughter gave up napping long ago. She just won't close her eyes until it is night time. I hope you are well! have a great day!

Lilli is 4 and still needs her nap. But, if it's a second over an hour long - there is no chance she'll go to bed at a decent hour.

Noah looks so adorable and refreshed after that nap! Cutie pie! :)
