Snow Days...again!

So the last time I went to work was one week ago yesterday. We've now had two major snow storms in the past week that have dumped almost 15 inches of snow on us. We've used all of our snow days at school +2 which means the school year is extended.

I absolutely LOVE hanging out with Ethan. We play floor time together and have had quite a few extensive conversations. However, all that happy time ends when the boy REFUSES to nap as mentioned in a previous post. He sleeps for maybe a half hour or so and wakes up cranky as can be. I would have no problem with these little catnaps if Ethan was getting the sleep he needs and seemed content but this isn't the deal AT ALL. Yesterday he got so overly tired by 2:00 that he wouldn't eat and screamed until his little face turned a shade of red I've rarely seen on him.

Today's naps started out the same way when he only slept for 35 minutes and woke up screaming. Chris and I had previously hung a dark red blanket over his window thinking the darkness would help Ethan sleep longer/later. When it didn't seem to work, I removed it. Well today, out of desperation, I hung the blanket back up. Though unsightly, Ethan did sleep for an entire hour! Yay! Happy baby = happy momma!

Ethan seems to be content. He's playing on his floor mat trying his hardest to turn from back to belly.
