Early to bed, no nap, and early to rise
Ezra has mostly stopped napping. It’s sort of sad and less convenient, but sort of fun at the same time. Sad because it’s yet another sign that he’s getting older. Less convenient because now there’s not a block of time where I can get some things done around the house in the afternoon, and fun because it means we can go out and do things all day and not really have to worry about getting back for a nap. There’s still the issue of having to deal with a cranky preschooler, but it kind of goes in waves. If you just let the cranky waves pass over you, a period of fun times and/or calm times happens in between. Ezra went to bed at about 6pm this evening. 6PM! I’m wondering what time this means he’ll wake up in the morning. 6am? earlier? THe lack of a nap lately has meant that he goes to bed earlier, but this is the earliest he’s gone to bed in a long long time. Then, also, the last few days he’s been woken up by something in the middle of the early morning hours (3am-ish) and come to see if he can crawl into bed with mom and dad. Hopefully tonight he’ll just sleep on through until the real morning.
