Last week we took Skylar to Kings Dominion for the first time. It was also our first family trip to an amusement park. I am not sure who had more fun, Skylar or Daddy.
Phil and I had a blast taking her on rides and watching her reaction. She was excited to be there and even enjoyed watching the rides she couldn't ride yet, making plans for next year no doubt.
There are only a few things she can ride right now, but she really enjoys them.
She really liked the Carousel and the Pirate Treasure Cave (Yogi's Cave). She also enjoyed the Boo Blasters where she rode in a car and shot at ghosts with a laser.
I recently had an old friend who is expecting his first baby ask "So, does she let you sleep", he likes his sleep because he works hard and long hours. I laughed! At this point you would think that you are gaining your sleep time back, however, if you are mommy there seems to be no such thing. Fortunately for him, he isn't.

Lately Skylar is on sleep strike. At first I thought it was her teeth, but now I am thinking it has more to do with separation anxiety because she will sleep if I hold her, and I am not trying to get into that habit. We have had to start sleep training all over again. She used to love laying in her bed. She would turn her little rain forest on and talk herself right to sleep. For the last week and a half sleep is a battle, especially at nap time. She has not had a nap for two days even though I let her cry. She eventually starts talking and playing, but continues to do so until about 3:30pm. At that point I want her to sleep at night so I get her up. She is back there yelling "YO GABBA- MOMMY" as I type. It can't last forever, right? I HOPE! I have ordered "Solve Your Child's Sleep Problems" by Robert Ferber in hopes that it sheds a little light on our situation.
