Monday Luna and I had a little experiment. Well, I guess I was the one really doing the experiment. Luna has been fighting her afternoon naps this past week. This means she is put down in her crib for the afternoon, but she has been singing songs to herself, rolling around, and talking to herself in her crib. I even caught her sitting up in her crib and signing 'more' on the video monitor. Who knows who she thought she was talking to! So after a week of this, and letting her try to fall asleep on her own for over an hour in the crib, I would give in and get her up and try to keep her up until bed time. Her morning naps have been from 9-11am so for her to be awake from 11am-7pm is a LONG stretch. Needless to say she was going to bed around 6:15pm.
So on Monday I decided I would try to keep her up until at least 11am to see if she would move into her afternoon nap. So off we went to Central Market where she got her very first balloon there. I have been avoiding them because she gets obsessed with them, but it was such a help to have while we shopped because it kept her entertained the entire time! When we got home, she held onto it and walked all over the house with it!

So I tried to keep her up after we got home at 10am. But by 10:30am she was crying, rolling around on the floor and rubbing her eyes. I took her back to her crib, nursed her and she was out! Didn't wake up until 1:15pm. So it was a nice nap, but still, we really need to move that nap up a little because the afternoons are too long for her.
After lunch, we headed to my friend Cheryl's house. I had not been to visit her since her little boy was 6 months old. He's now turning 2 this week!! They had a great time playing and little Zach invited Luna to play in his crib and to sit next to him at his piano. So cute!!
