Nap time has evolved from having to fall asleep on me, to having to breastfeed in bed, to being left in the bedroom alone.
Nap time routine is now the same as Bed time. She crawls into bed and gets one story. Tucked in. Sleep Sheep on. Hug and kiss. I turn the monitor on and leave the room. Sometimes, she demands "on bed". I'll sit on our bed and then leave when she gets preoccupied. If I stay too long, she'll play.
Sometimes she will read. Sometimes she will sleep. And sometimes she will do both after a while. Either way, she ends up getting about an hour of HER time and I can do whatever I want that's not toddler or even chore related.
