Why?

I have come to love nap time.

Not my nap time (I'm an awful napper)...Camden's.

It just gives me a chance to 1)rejuvenate 2) get a few things done 3) occasionally regain my sanity

So, when the little man decides to forgo his nap I get 4)none of the above.

That = no bueno.

Yesterday I had Camden and London for our weekly baby-swap. Obviously he did not want to nap for fear of missing out on fun with his buddy.

I understood and (somewhat) patiently dealt with his semi-fussy afternoon, all the while thinking that he would just take a longer nap later.

Unfortunately, that nap did not happen either.

Brecca and I went to run a few errands (in preparation for Camden's first Birthday!)

and neither one of the kids was in a good mood...good things we can laugh about everything...including our children screaming in the store, in the back seat, in the strollers

To make a long story short, I VERY much enjoyed my hip hop and yoga classes tonight.

There was no crying.

And when I got home, I was a much more pleasant mommy.

I have decided that all children take wonderfully long naps in heaven.
