DH has a work dinner tonight so I am picking the girls up from daycare today and most likely solo until after bedtime. Hopefully J is over her post shot crankiness, poor baby was so miserable last night.

So S seriously doesn't want to nap but clearly needs it at least most of the time. It would be ok if I could tell her to just read quietly in your room for xxxx time and then we can do something fun. Nope she comes out every two minutes, or screams from her door. So now we have a lock on the door so she can't escape and I have moved all her toys into her closet. Books and stuffed animals are all that is accessible and she fell asleep in less than 20 minutes. Ahh toddlers.
Today we made a last minute decision (due to weather) to go to the zoo. Beside some rain on the way there, it turned out to be a lovely day. It was actually pretty hot and humid but not unbearably. Now we are home, bathed, fed, and watching sleeping beauty. Anna wanted to walk through most of the zoo and since it wasn't too busy, I let her (instead of the power struggle that is the stroller these days) so I'm thinking early-ish bedtime.
DD is in a no nap stage too. Thankfully she's still in a crib though so she brings a few books in with her for quiet time and is always asleep within a few minutes. Toddlers are weird.
I actually got a lot done today while DD was in daycare. While I was gone, they did good keeping things picked up, just not organized how I like it. It was driving me crazy but I couldn't do it with her around so that was nice.

G regularly plays in his crib for 10-60 minutes and then sleeps 2-3 hours depending on the day / if I have to wake him up because he delayed nap for too long. That's my only reason for keeping him in the crib other than he claims he loves his crib and doesn't want to change it.
A just jumped up and down in her crib and shouted. So yeah, that wasn't doing anything for us. Besides a few days of adjustment (reads: tired evenings), A has been fine without a nap thankfully! She must have been ready!
