Hi there and thanks for checking in.
I've played around with letting him sleep as long as he wants in the morning which generally only amounts to between 5 and 15 min more than I had been letting him.
I've been putting him down closer to 3:30 and letting him sleep till 4:30 (and that makes me nervous regarding bedtime!) but so far he's only slept till about 4:15 or 4:25 at the latest.
We've also been putting him to bed between 7:30 and 7:45 depending on the last nap.
He's not been waking early in the morning... maybe 5-10 min at most.
Since he can sit well in the sink, I've been letting him stay in the bath as long as he wants and this seems to be working better with the fussiness in dressing later. I just hang around the sink and listen to webinars or work on meal planning. Sometimes I fold laundry there on the kitchen table.
I just got an inflatable tub for the bathtub since he splashes a lot... so wondering what that whole process will look like when we make the switch!
Looks like only one more week of low 40's temps before we can get outside more. I do try to take him somewhere close by in the afternoon just to break the day up.
I tend to let him run my schedule still
instead of allowing him to fuss a bit if I'm working on something like washing the dishes etc. Seems I carry him in my pack too much? But in the long run, I would rather look back and feel like I held him too much rather than not enough. I'm open to thoughts about that although it's really not an EASY
topic.
Thanks again for "calling." About brought tear to my eye that I was being thought of.
