nap time

kennedie had a break through this week at school (yes - i call her day care school b/c she has learned so much - she is not only getting cared for, but taught as well!) - she slept on her very own nap mat :) to some, this may not seem monumental - but to her mommy (& her teacher i'm sure) it is! no more  hauling out the pack-n-play at naptime for her!
 kennedie still sleeps in her crib at night (i'm probably going to regret saying this next part) b/c she has yet to try to escape it - i.e. climb out. she has also always napped in her crib when we are home...until yesterday. she kept saying something & i couldn't for the life of me figure it out until she drug her sleeping bag out to the living room and said it again - it was 'nap mat'. so, we took her sleeping bag into her room & put it out on her carpet. she got her blankies, snuggled right in and told me to "close the door." i thought, yeah right, there's no way she's going to sleep in there with her books, toys & dresser drawers that are just waiting to be emptied ;) but to my suprise, when i peeked in about 15 mintues later - afraid of how quiet it was in there - there she was, fast asleep, sprawled out with two babies tucked in beside her (she must've gotten up to get them after i closed the door).


though it may be short lived, she asked to nap on her nap mat (aka sleeping bag) again today. she asked for her babies before i left the room, so i tucked everyone in & closed the door. as i walked away, i heard some talking but went to unpack the groceries and give her some time to fall asleep. when i was finished, i leaned close to the door but couldn't hear a sound. again, being the photo crazed mommy that i am, i crept in for another shot. not only was she asleep with her babies, but the talking i had heard must have been her reading stories to her babies before naps, as there were a couple books beside the 'nap mat' that weren't there when i had tucked everyone in :)
