The beginning of the end of naptime.

Currently, "quiet time" is going on upstairs in Abby's room. There is singing, jumping, talking, and a lot of thuds. Basically, it is NOT QUIET. I told her if she wasn't going to nap, she had to play quietly in her room for 1 1/2 hours.

Meanwhile, I am downstairs having a quiet panic attack. OMG, OMG, OMG! DO NOT STOP NAPPING! I CANNOT HANDLE THIS! I'M NOT READY!!!!!!

Sigh.

She turned 3 in November. She's the only one of her friends left that still takes a nap. I know it's going to end soon, I just don't want it to be yet. What the heck are we going to do all day?

I can enforce the quiet time, she's pretty good about playing by herself in her room. But, I'm used to her taking 2-3 hour naps every day. How am I going to adjust to just 1 hour of "quiet" time?!?

Yes, I realize I am lucky. I know plenty of kids who won't play in their rooms and moms who don't get any sort of break. But, ugh. I guess I should just look at this as another stage we're passing?

Hopefully today is just a fluke. She has ballet tomorrow, so a nap will probably (fingers crossed!) happen. However, today is just the beginning of the end.

ARGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
