Sleep difficulties, part 3
Edith's teachers are back to letting her fall asleep some during the schoolday (I can't blame them for not being completely vigilant on this score), and so we're back to bedtimes around 10 or 10:30, even when we turn off the lights by 8. When she doesn't nap, she falls asleep at night almost instanteously. Sigh. It's hard not having control of that one.
But she's doing her best to avoid naptime. Apparently yesterday she made a show of tossing and turning on her mat and then sighed to Ms. Chrissy,
"I just can't sleep. I can't get comfortable on my belly with the baby kicking." She then reportedly twisted herself into an awkward sideways semi-fetal position and attempted to stayed balanced that way, saying it was the only way she could lie down.
The baby in Edith's belly is due in October. She has more patience than I usually give her credit for.

Ah - after reading this post today, I think you should check out my new favorite blog about kids. http://www.lookydaddy.com/weblog/
A stay at home day with twins who are three and another girl who is 10. The most recent listing about "being three" seems apt right now. I laughed, but I have a feeling you'll appreciate it more. Enjoy.
Wow, impending grandmotherhood too! You ARE going to be busy! :)
