once upon a time before we went on a trip to indiana my baby took regular naps.

it was a wonderful time. a time of happy babies and happy mommies and some sort of order in general. in indiana, the babe did not nap well. too much partying . . . you wouldn't want to miss anything! and since we've been home she continues to refuse to nap.

once upon a time when carly was a baby and she just laid there all cute and nursed all day and hung out, she didn't nap. but she was happy all day, so i couldn't complain too much. then she started regular scheduled napping and i saw just how blissful life could be with a child who naps. now? not napping. now? not happy all day. now? fussing/screaming/whining all day. the girl is exhausted but won't sleep.

we have serious chaos right now in the c house.

carly's current favorite hobby is to crawl around crying and whining and tearing the house apart.

and chewing on shoes.

and everytime i put her down in her crib she screams like its a torture chamber.

its your BED, child.

i wish someone would force me into bed to sleep twice a day.

you think you would be able to stay one step ahead of such a tiny thing.

wrong.

so wrong.

i'm considering never going anywhere ever again.

though i don't get it because she did great after Idaho.

maybe she is teething.

i don't know but i finally left her in her crib and got in the shower

i think she is asleep now.

anyway.

TGIF.

i could use the back-up.
