Ok, so she was taking two naps a day - one in the morning and one in the afternoon. And then she wouldn’t take the morning nap and would be really, really cranky by the afternoon. So, we consolidated down to one nap a day, mid-day. And she would take long naps, usually. Slumbers, more like it. Two to three hours. Sometimes even longer.

But now she vascillates between the separate naps (where she sometimes sleeps for two hours each time) and the noon nap (where she will sleep for two hours, if I’m lucky).

And, as long as I know when she’s getting up and going down, and as long as it’s consistent - that coupled with the fact that y’know, she acts in a decent and usual manner (which is, actually, happy and curious) - then I’m okay with that. But this, this I’m not so okay with.

I need some kind of schedule. Not because I’m a Type A personality, but because of the precise opposite. I need a schedule because otherwise, I’ll flounder my day away and will only, occasionally, get to the stuff of work and pay (the fact that before I left for Medellin I only finished these posts around midnight each day is a testament to this).

Anybody got any ideas? I wonder if there are programs out there to set your children to sleep like clockwork. MS Doze…
