who knew?

so, it's been a couple long days-we've been sick, but everyone's recovering. the real question is: who knew that a non-tired baby could be so tiring!??? lindsey HATES taking naps and fights it and the thing is-she doesn't always ACT tired, but when your 11 month old hasn't taken more than a 20min nap and it's 3:30pm you'd *think* she'd need a nap. but, you'd be wrong. because you'd spend 30 minutes getting her to fall asleep and take a 30 minute nap!!! it's annoying trying to get a child to sleep who doesn't want to but who needs it. you tell me-how much does/did your one year old nap?? cause mine-not so much...(also-does your child sleep through the night. mine-not so much all the time....)

pics will come as soon as i get the energy to hook up our external hard drive to this computer, but don't worry-i'm keeping a journal of all the posts i need to do so stay tuned..including one of L taking some steps!!!!! :-)

I think at that age they should be getting about 14 hours of sleep a day. Most one year olds sleep about 11-12 hours at night and take either two 1 & 1/2 hours naps, or one 2-3 hour nap. That is strange that she's not sleeping better. It's so frustrating when they go through those poor sleeping stages. Moving has probably thrown her off. It always throws our kids sleeping habits off whenever we have moved & whenever we go on vacation. Perhaps teething too? Hang in there! It's tough! Hopefully she'll get settled and improve soon.
