So, Owen has been pretty much done with naps for awhile now, right? Right.
Until Pre-K started, apparently, when they have an hour scheduled for “rest” which can include a nap if they’re tired or just quiet time where they can draw or read.
So what do I read on his daily take-home sheet Monday? He slept. Okay, I thought, that was a fluke—maybe he was just really worn out or didn’t get a good night’s sleep. So, what did I read Tuesday? He slept. Hmmmm. Okay. And then today? HE SLEPT AGAIN! He has taken THREE naps this week!
So…I’m thinking he needs more sleep at night (even though he is already going to bed earlier and getting up at the same time—I haven’t had to wake him up for school once yet)…so I moved his bedtime to 7:30 instead of 8.
And since Katie WAS at 7:30 and I didn’t want them both going at the same time (a little rough on me), I moved her to 7—which is also likely a good thing because her daytime nap has moved back to 11 so she’s likely more tired at night.
And what might be the best bonus? More free time at night for me!
