I've almost forgotten how great they are, LOL! Natalie didn't nap yesterday,went to bed late, and got up earlier than she normally does. El groucho all morning of course and she's actually been asleep for almost 2 hours. This hasn't happened outside of illness for a LONG time and I'M LOVING IT!!!! DH is working on her new swingset and I'm literally just relaxing and trying to soak up every minute of this rare nap. What a bad mother I am!!

(She only naps about 3 days a week and those are usually a bit of a fight and then only last an hour or so.)

Naps are a wonderful thing! I remember being thankful, when my kids were sleeping, too!

Yes, I know what you are saying, Deanna. I miss those nap times, too! Sometimes I wouldn't get a thing done because I would also fall asleep. Glad you are relaxing and enjoying the quiet time.
I hope we get to see a photo of Natalie on the new swing set! How fun.

When I did daycare, I had it all worked out so that all 5 kids (2 babies and 3 toddlers) went down for naps at the same time. I lived for 2-4 every afternoon!

Amen, sister! I'm so happy Connor still naps! He will take a 2, sometimes up to a 4 hour nap!

I remember telling my children, up until each started kindergarten, "It's time for your nap - I need it."
