Naptime

Since converting to a toddler bed at the start of the week we've had a rough time with naps. If Allison doesn't want to sleep she just waits for me to go downstairs then 5 minutes later follows me down. Wednesday she never slept at all. Today I tried something new. Allison wasn't quite ready to sleep, so I told her she could play but she had to stay in her room until she took a nap. I had no idea if she really understood or was honoring me but we tried it. I heard noises for 20-30 minutes and resisted checking on her for at least an hour (although I did wish the whole time I had a video monitor). She pulled everything off her bed and out of a toy box and fell asleep in the middle - so precious.
