Remember that song by the Barenaked Ladies? I find myself singing it in my head pretty often these days:
"Who needs sleep?
Well you're never gonna get it!
Who needs sleep?
Tell me what's that for?
Who needs sleep?
Be happy with what you're getting...."
Sometimes I feel like a zombie. Sometimes I even act like one...I'm so hopeful that Joshua will forget how short my temper is if I keep trying every day to be better. Someday, I'll get enough sleep again...
On a similar note, Joshua has been testing his sleeping boundaries, too. He's moved into his new room, and often elects to play with his toys rather than sleeping at nap time. Which is ok, he is still having quiet time. But while dinner is being prepared, it is always apparent that little Joshua still needs to have a nap. I am trying to brainstorm ways to achieve a nap from where we are now. I think if I were to put him into his crib or into a pack'n'play, he would climb out, and start climbing in other ways, too. But in the meantime, I have a growing collection of crazy positions I find Joshua in when he does happen to nap. Please enjoy, and give advice if you have any.
