To Tatum. To me? It’s the Holy Grail. What’s up with that?
Lately, Tatum doesn’t really nap, which is fine, but then is challenged to fall asleep at 7 when she is put down. I will not change her bedtime because I do believe in her having the structure and 12 hours of sleep, yet this does have Tatum all up (literally) in a tizzy. This tizzy looks like her sneaking out of bed and grabbing books, taking out all of her clothes, obtaining plastic food items from her kitchen, etc! How can I get her to stay in bed and entertain her animals? We are thinking outside of the box everyday and trying something new.
For now? Tatum is TIRED during the day since she’s not getting her sleep. We are now in a similar boat. The difference is Tatum can (and does) fall asleep anywhere. Here she snuck into my room while I was working and I found her under my pillows ASLEEP.
Lucky gal.
Meanwhile, she is taking every opportunity to get some shut eye
while I think of new ideas to make her sleepy by 7 and fall asleep. Maybe a melatonin milkshake before bed? Hmmm?
