Sorry I haven't posted much recently--life has been busy with very mundane things for the most part. We are getting our HHG's tomorrow though, so I'll have updated pictures of the house for you soon!
Tonight, however, I want your advice on a current conundrum. Logan's morning naps have been going from 9:30 to 11:00-11:15; mostly I consider this to be a great thing. It is rather inconvenient for getting to church though. Most of the churches that are nearby have services that start at 10:30; obviously that doesn't work very well right now. There are two exceptions: one church has an early service that starts at 8:30 and runs until about 10:00 and another church starts at 11:00. We tried the early service today . . . not only were Jake and I struggling to pay attention through the sermon but when we got home and laid Logan down, he still woke up at 11:00 after barely more than a half-hour. Other churches that we might consider involve a half-hour drive on top of the issue of inconvenient service-nap combo. Any brilliant insights?
It might be time to consolidate naps and push it to after lunch. (I am assuming he is still taking 2.) OR if there is a nursery, put him down for his nap there. OR His internal clock seems to be pretty consistent but maybe push bedtime back a little Sat night and he will sleep a little later Sunday morning so nap will start later?? OR put him down earlier for his nap and get him up when you need to leave. That gives you time to get ready in peace. Then he may take an earlier or longer afternoon nap.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you will have to play with the timing a bit but don't let it stop you from going to church. Logan will adapt to your Sunday schedule. Sundays are always tough!
Regarding your comment about Logan's favorite toy being a stick - next thing you know it will be a dur-dur. Ask Jake if you are not familiar with those : )
Happy Anniversary! Hope Jake is feeling better after his procrastination and has felt more like celebrating this weekend. I also hope you and Logan didn't catch the disease.
Congrats on the shipment! Lots of things for Logan to help you unpack.
Keep the pictures coming! We love you! We miss you!
Grandma made lots of great suggestions! I do agree that Sundays are always tough. I thoroughly enjoy working in the baby nursery on Sunday mornings and have at least one fall asleep on my shoulder. :) We went the route of getting them up when we were ready to leave. Sometimes they fell back to sleep on the way to church, if they woke up on the way to the car. It usually made for a longer (and earlier) nap in the afternoon. The thing that always stunk was when they fell asleep on the way home and managed to sleep through lunch. Playing in the nursery is exhausting, you know!
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear how things are going there! Hugs to all of you!
Just happened to think - the dur-dur will probably wait till after Logan has explored all the cardboard boxes. He must be having a ball!
