Tired


All the Youngers have slowly adapted to life without Hudson's nap.  His Mommy, Daddy, and Nonna have found ways to encourage "quiet time" and carve out a few minutes for themselves in the afternoon.  Even Hudson has adjusted, adding to his nighttime sleep.  He often falls asleep by 7:15 pm and sleeps as late as 8:00 or 8:30 am.  However, there are afternoons when it's so obvious the little guy needs a few winks... like today.  Can you see how tired he is?  His Mommy tried to encourage him to rest for a bit, but he was firm in his refusal and there's no way to make him do it.  She knew how the evening would turn out... and it did.  From 6:00 pm to bedtime an hour later was one constant whine with a few good sobs and tantrums thrown in.  Anyone have this experience with their kids?

No napping Zola is Hudson's kindred spirit. Really!
