Hayden took a 20 minute nap at daycare today. That's 20 minutes out of an 8 hour day. So, when we got home, I gave her a bottle and put her down for a nap at 5pm, which is the normal time for her late afternoon nap, when she takes one. She went down without a fight, which is rare, and now, three hours later, she's still asleep. I thought about waking her up, but I really am of the belief that you never wake a sleeping baby, but now I'm afraid her little clock will be completely off. I don't see how she can sleep through the night this way, since she didn't have dinner, but I don't know about waking her, since it's technically her bedtime now. And, yes, I did go in to make sure she's still breathing. I wonder if that impulse will ever be quelled, or if I'll be doing that when she sleeps in on college break.
On the plus side though, I got about 15 senior portfolios graded. 15 down, 120 to go.

i recently found out to my cost- do not screw up the sleep pattern. for two nights we were lax in enforcing bedtime between 7-8pm. wicks was going to sleep at 9pm. he was then fussing all night long. it was a nightmare.
i will be sticking to up at 6, nap around 9.30, up again around 11. lunch at noon. nap again around 2. dinner at 5 and bed by 8. any deviation and i end up with the worst day ever.
