Naptime... Help!!

Well we've finally arrived at A-N figuring out how to get out of her "big bed" all on her own! So as cute as it is, and as sweet as it is in the mornings when she comes in our room calling, Mommy, Daddy..." naptime ain't as cute!!!!!!!! At night (so far since she's discovered this new fun thing for her to do) she goes right to bed still with no problems. Also, so far I don't mind her getting up on her own in the mornings because she still sleeps til about 10:30 or so (of course it has only been 3 mornings!). But naptime... whole 'nuther story!!! Even though she can hardly hold her eyes open, of course it's more fun to get out of bed than go to sleep! So yesterday, there was no nap. But because I got up way too early myself this morning and I'm sleepy, I took 2 of David's golf plaques (they're big) and blocked in her little "slide" that she's created and then put pillows in front of them. Today, that worked!!! She didn't move the plaques, and she's still asleep... yay!!! So guess what David's priority "honey-do" is... yep, to board up the space between her bed rails!! She's too young (and I'm too tired) for her to give up her afternoon naps!! Now to more fun news... she's picking out her own clothes these days... most days, her dresses do NOT match the shoes that she chooses!! The ONLY shoes she wants to wear were her hot pink and white tie-dyed crocs. Lovely!! So yesterday, I got her some more neutral crocs complete with a Tinkerbell on one and a flower on the other!!! These are now her new favorites. She almost slept in them last night!! (which would have been fine if that's what it would have taken for her to go to sleep!!!) I'll get some pics of her with her new shoes to post. That's is for now!!
