Maddie's birthday party

Maddie had a great time at her birthday party. She enjoyed opening gifts and playing with the other kids, but not so much digging into her little cake. She didn't like the frosting on her hands, but later she ate the cake from my fork and loved it.

I timed the birthday party according to her nap schedule, from 3 - 5, however I think we need to switch to one nap a day now. She took her morning nap fine but then she cried for an hour and a half before for her afternoon nap and didn't fall asleep until 2:30. She woke up at 3:15 so at least she slept. Today we took Maddie to Granny White Park this morning to keep her up and move back the morning nap. She looked exhausted and I knew she would not have a problem going to sleep this morning but I wanted to see how she did with one nap today. I put her down at 11:30 and she's still asleep 2 hours later. She usually only sleeps for an hour. I'm sorry to let her first nap go but at least we won't be stuck at the house for most of the day now.
