Sleep eating

Phoebe never got her nap on Saturday afternoon.

Kates took her grocery shopping in the morning. But by the time they got home, they were an hour behind Phoebe’s regular schedule. We fed her lunch and tried to put her down for a nap … But she never fell asleep. And when we could no longer stand her cries, we rescued her from her crib to let her play.

As the afternoon rolled on, Phoebe got more crabby. Every toy that was out of place or didn't work the way she wanted resulted in a meltdown.

At around 5 we had her buckled in her hi-chair for supper … And this video shows the result …

Phoebe was in bed last night by 6 – about two hours earlier than usual – and we didn’t hear a peep from her until 7:15 this morning …

(My apologies for some of the shaking in this video, but I couldn’t stop laughing!)
