Well i guess joseph gets no naps. Its impossible i put him in his bed he screamed, got up opened the door, i laid him back down hes up and playin upstairs now. Is there an age where they just stop taking naps? He was rubbing his eyes for an hr before i put him for a nap but he doesnt want one. hes 19 mths old now. Hopefully jordynne doesnt go through that phase or its later on. she has little naps throughout the day. Smile

Maybe the fact that all joseph has had is koolaid, we have no juice or anything we gotta grocery shop when jason gets off work . but i still half water half koolaid sometimes 75% water 25% koolaid. it varies, i feel like im going insane . One thing i know for sure is im not pregnant Smile

i finally got my period Smile

for sure this time hehe.

Glad you got your periods hehe!!!! Ya my little one still take naps she is turning 4 in May but I heard that round about 2 years of age alot of Todlers just give their naps up... Maybe its because she is so busy that she needs to nap. If she doesnt she gets very cranky round 19:00..

Hey! I know your probably sick of hearing it but children stop needing naps at different ages, so it really does depend on the child.

Maybe you can suggest that he doesnt have to sleep but you want him to have a rest (lie down). Sometimes this will be just as good as a nap for some children and others will just fall asleep (shows if they really are tired or not).... I dont know, its up to you!!

Goodluck!

ya joseph usually ends up in bed at 19:00 if he dont nap lol, because he turns intoa brat. i think today is a no nap day , but im glad im not grocery shoppin alone so jason can handle him, ill handle jordynne she is quiet most of the time, unless shes hungry or wants to sit up or is pooping . Wouldnt be so bad abuot no naps if he wasnt a holy terror when he doesnt get one lol. he gets into everything now, i cant do anything lol. had to lock the bathroom door upstairs witha butter knife to keep him out and chainlock our front door at all times. I went to change my pants yesterday and he had the front door open standing there lookin out i about freaked. had to make sure the chain lock he couldnt squeeze through lol.
