We've switched up our family routine and have less time in the morning. <BR/><BR/>I've got to walk on eggshells to get LA Toddler up in the morning. One wrong move and it's tears until daycare dropoff. <BR/><BR/>But naps are a must for us. If she doesn't get a nap, she's a mess by 6pm. <BR/><BR/>Hope it gets better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23530950.post-43048538654744393382007-09-18T11:03:00.000-04:002007-09-18T11:03:00.000-04:00This is exactly how I feel these days.

Here's hoping for some relief or balance or something, anything, to make it better. Perhaps they can try a shorter nap instead and phase it out that way? (Meanwhile, I know you make up for it with loves and talk at other times, because you are wonderful, so don't knock yourself, mama.)kittenpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05215443551546036909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23530950.post-39292330512233725712007-09-14T23:25:00.000-04:002007-09-14T23:25:00.000-04:00Nap time is tough.
