      The fedex man hasn't come with the tent yet, so I spend yet another naptime in a chair rocking my hurkin toddler. It's so hot under her!

        I just helped a friend install a crib tent and had never heard of them before that. Freaking genius invention for kids who like to climb and wander!

        And I'd put very little stock in what a hippy baby store employee says. A lot of the people I know who try to do this "free range baby" shtick just end up with feral kids. Not all, but a LOT.

          Hahaha! Well, I've been sitting with her sleeping in my arms for almost 2 hours now. This sucks. And now she has to re-learn CIO. I hope she doesn't destroy it!

              That is hilarious, A!

              We put together the tent and dh is putting M down for bed now. We'll see... She wanted to get into it, and when we zipped her up, she watched us very closely. I'm a little worried now that she knows how to operate it.

              She's got her PJs on backwards and a sleep sack on -- also backwards.

              Cross your fingers!

                  She fell asleep quickly.

                  I rocked her for 2.5 hours this afternoon while she slept. When all was said and done, we could have both used a shower--mI was hot underneath all that weight! And we don't have an ottoman.

                  Give me the strength to get through CIO at nap tomorrow!

                    This is the first time in about a week that M is taking a nap in her crib!

                          After 5 minutes if trying to get to the zipper, she gave up.

                          I felt awful at first, because it's like watching a bug in a sink--struggle struggle struggle, and then give in to the water whooshing it down the sink.

                          She has been sleeping for almost 2.5 hours now. I know she needs this nap!

                          Pizza tonight to celebrate!

                                Thanks. You guys are sweet!
                                I'm singing the crib tent's praises. M has been sleeping for 3 hours now, and there are Blue Angels practicing over our house!

                                She's definitely making up for lost sleep.
