Messed up again on the app.

Oops

Greetings from Cabo!
I'm sitting inside hoping cam will take a nap, while the rest of the crew is swimming outside.
We rented a house with my BFF and her family, and needless to say we're having a blast. I swear that traveling with friends is the way to go with young kids. The sibling fighting is exponentially less when there are friends to play with.
And the fact that the house has a yard and its own pool is heaven for the kids.
And of course it's great for us too. BFF lives in the Bay Area, so QT with her is limited. So it's been nice to hang with her and her husband too. Margaritas and lots of cards after the kids go to bed. (If we're not exhausted from a day at the beach. One night we all called it a night at 9:30. )
Anyway, this is my first trip to Cabo, and I'm sold. Jeff and I planned a trip 11 years ago, but a hurricane thwarted our plans. (The plan b was the trip that Jeff proposed on).
Lands end is gorgeous. We're outside of the hustle and bustle. We found the best swimmable beach ever. Tacos and margaritas a plenty. I can't wait to come back.

Alright. Cam is yelling. Gotta go. I'll be back soon with more reality Haps.
Not nearly as fun!!

After another scream fest at 3:30am, we've decided to succumb and give him back his paci tonight at bed.
Let's hope that when we try again, he will be better ready for the transition.
The pay off of keeping a tooth safe for hours of frustration, lack of sleep, anger, etc just doesn't seem worth it anymore. I'm not kidding when I say this is THE worst parenting moment I've ever had. What kid still hasn't adjusted after 15 days!!!! That's ludicrous.
Trying not to feel like a failure, but at least I should be a more relaxed one.
Of course, this could all blow up if he continues these antics even after the paci returns. Wish us luck.

Ok. So I'm working on cam' sleep, and its a bit of a conundrum.
Good news...he slept thru the night last night.
Bad news...I'm struggling with his naps.
He wakes up anytime between 6-730am. Then goes down for a 2-hour nap between 930-1000.
BUT he hasn't taken a second nap for a week. I try everyday around 2-3pm, but he's not having it.
So off to bed at 5:30, he goes. He's beat and falls right to sleep. With wither only one wake up or none.

Could he already be down to one nap? He just turned 10 mos.
Would you give up the fight?
He's so stubborn!


ETA:  He peacefully went to sleep for a second nap at 2:40pm today.  Of course!  :P
