NAPTIME

Brikelle is taking after her big sister when she was this age and has recently decided that she is too big to take naps. The only difference is that Bailee could actually make it through a whole day without falling asleep...Brikelle, not so much. The whole sleeping thing has been a bit of a challenge lately. If she falls asleep during the day, I can't help but let her stay asleep for half an hour or an hour because the break is much welcomed. However, when she does fall asleep during the day, it gives her just enough energy to be wide awake and a huge challenge at bedtime. Brikelle has always been so good about going to bed...even when we transitioned her to her toddler bed. She would go to bed willingly and stay in bed all night. Now bedtime is a game. She goes to bed willingly but gets out of bed over and over again until she finally wears down enough to stay in bed (usually around 11 pm). Needless to say, mommy is starting to feel the affects. Hopefully this stage will pass soon! Here are some pictures of some of the places she has decided to fall asleep...
