For the past week or so, Donny has been coming into my room announcing "I WAKED UP." I wouldn't mind so much, however this usually happens between 5:00 and 5:30. He isn't happy until the entire house is awake. Once everyone is up and the coffee is brewing, he sits on the couch and looks like the photo. A couple hours later he starts to complain that he is tired. I am trying to cut out his naps, but he is making the process quite difficult. I thought about locking him in his room, but then he would still wake us by banging on his door until we acknowledged him. I'm looking for a specific clock that turns a different color when it is okay to get out of bed. Maybe I'll tell him that the turkey vultures hang out in the living room until Mommy and Daddy wake up, that will keep him in his room, but then I will have to answer 1000 questions about turkey vultures.

I know that urge to cut out the naps, but ohhhh those naps are a wonderful time to regenerate YOUSELF. It was always a hard choice for me.
ReplyDeleteHey Marilyn, I missed you! I really don't want to cut out the naps, I LOVE nap time. However, he is going to bed later and later and still getting up with the roosters. He took a three hour nap today. I think he is getting sick again, slight fever and very calm evening. I sure hope not, but it has been over two weeks.
