Nap Mania

While Claire is a great sleeper overnight, she has never been much of a consistent napper. She gave up her morning nap about a month ago, and we had high hopes that her one nap would become a little longer. Unfortunately, that has not been the case. Some days, especially at daycare, she only naps for a little over an hour. This makes for one very tired girl by the end of the day.
The last two Fridays, Claire and I have had very busy mornings. Last Friday we ventured to Edinborough Park. Claire ran through tunnels, went down slides, and played in the open gym until she was thoroughly worn out (mom too!). When we returned home, Claire napped for not one, not two, but THREE hours!
This Friday we headed to the Children's Museum to meet up with an old E&Y coworker of mine and her adorable 2 year old son (thanks for the fun time Heidi and Caleb). Claire played her heart out, and when we got home she slept for not one, not two, but THREE hours again!
I'm definitely not counting on this happening every Friday, but I'll take what I can get! Getting a little break is nice, but the best part is that she wakes up such a happy little girl!!
