Change

Recently Belle has been going through some changes and throwing our once perfect schedule off balance. In turn I suffer from the change and struggling to find my footing. Naps are a constant battle and I think she just might be done with them..... I hope it isn't sooo!

I am trying one last thing and that is to put her to bed a little later and have her wake up at the same time. This will give her less night time sleep and hopefully drive her to sleep in the afternoon. Who knows!

What I have really come to learn is that I need to really get my life on a schedule and let belle be on her own schedule. This involves me waking early at 6 before she does and starting my day with a shower. I must make this happen no matter how much I want to sleep in. The embarrassment of being the smelly parent is starting to get to me! I can't always use the excuse of just moving into our new home... "I am just so busy I don't have time to shower!"

Someone once told me you make time for the things that are really important to you. Right now hygiene is on the list!

Don't you just love type A parents?!
