In Need of Naps

Poor Carter hasn't been getting his regular 2 naps a day in his crib the last couple of days and he has been one very unhappy baby. After being a 30-minute napper for so long, Carter seems to be getting dependent on the 2 long naps a day now.

Yesterday he got his normal morning nap, then took a short 30 minute nap during a walk with my mom while I played my soccer game. I finally got him down in his crib for a late afternoon nap around 5:30 pm and decided to wake him up after an hour so he could eat dinner and still go to bed at his normal time. He was very grumpy for that hour and nothing could make him happy.

Today my mom and I took Carter to the outlet stores in Sevierville. I decided to let him take his morning nap in the car which ended up being about 3o minutes. He took a 15 minute cat nap while shopping and then another 20 minute nap on the drive home. He was absolutely miserable tonight. He barely ate dinner and was crying hysterically before and after his bath.

Tomorrow I am going to make sure Carter gets 2 good naps in his crib!

It seems like just yesterday you were complaining about not being able to get him on a schedule! Haha! We miss you guys already this week, but I'm sure you're having fun!
