Raegan hasn't been napping very well lately. She has a hard time falling asleep and then once she does get to sleep, it's for a very short time. So Seth and I have been tying to help her relax, get in the "take a nap" kind of a mood. We'll rub her back, stroke her hair, put calming music on and hold her hand etc. (And for those of you thinking why don't you just leave her there and let her cry it out, it's because if I can get her to fall asleep without having her cry her little eyes out, then I will).
She really likes to hold hands which is so sweet and endearing, but somewhat exhausting when your standing over her crib forever with an aching back. But we recently discovered that if we let her hold our finger for just a couple minutes, then slyly slip in the leg of this adorable doll meg made her, she holds on to it and wala! She sleeps soundly and all is well in the Huish casa!
