sleep

something just isnt right. something has changed. and that something is caitlin's sleep schedule. i wish i knew what the deal was, cause its frustrating me to no end. before i left on my trip to virginia caitlin had a pretty good schedule going. she would normally wake up around 730-8am. she would take a nap during the day, usually noon-ish. then she would go to sleep around 8pm. it was pretty consistant.

however, since i've been home things are very different. she is waking up around 630am. her naps are not till late afternoon and that usually comes with a tantrum which may or may not result in sleep. and the past couple nights she isnt going to bed till 9-ish, and even then its with a MAJOR crying meltdown.

and it doesnt matter what time she goes to bed, she is still up bright and early. this morning she woke up and stood in her door and i could tell she was still very sleepy. she ended up throwing another fit and crying spell. it was obvious she really didnt want to be up. and yet she was.

so what is causing this change??? i wish i knew. i wish i knew how to make it be alot smoother. cause i am on a losing battle here. i feel like she is an infant again and i'm up all night with her and not getting enough sleep myelf. which is clearly causing my frustration to rise. and that isnt fun at all.
