I had a nap today!!!

I got tired today, but instead of fighting it like I usually do, I let mom put me down for a nap in my crib. I slept 2 1/2 hours! Mom was so happy! She got a lot done and she thought I was going to be in a really good mood this evening. I did have some good play time, but I was mostly fussy all evening. Dad's holding me while I cry now, but it's OK, I'll calm down in an hour or so and go to sleep for the night. Sometimes I just like to cry and yell at mom and dad to let them know who's in charge. :)

[Update: I did NOT do well last night. I guess when I take naps, it doesn't really affect how night time will go. Mom got really frustrated with me because it took her more than 3 hours to finally get me to sleep close to midnight. But I will surprise mom and dad, and I'll be good tonight!]

Now that I'm taking more of an interest in all those toys and animals that mom and dad have around the house for me, I'm easier. I can sit in one of my swings or my exersaucer or papasan, and as long as I have something to look at, I'm usually OK. I sure do have a lot of toys! Most of them used to be another baby's, but that just means I don't have to break them in.

In a few more weeks, I hope I have enough coordination so I can grab them and make them sing. Mom keeps trying to read books to me, but doesn't she know I'm not old enough to listen yet? I don't know why she keeps doing that. Some of them have crinkly pages that make fun sounds though. Maybe someday soon I'll be able to touch the pages myself.
