She sleeps

In her unpredictability, Anna has been somewhat predictable.

About a month and 1/2 ago, Anna decided that she didn't want to nap in the afternoon. Try as I might, even with a bottle at 1pm - normal nap time. She just wouldn't do it. She would take the bottle, drink it, then open her door and come back down stairs. After several days of this, I decided, fine. No bottle, your done and I will have to deal with Ms. cranky pants.

Well, after a couple of days, I realized that later in the afternoon, Anna would disappear. Since she can freely go up and down the stairs, I would give her a few minutes and then go up and check on her.

For the past month, Anna decides when she is tired. She goes upstairs and crawls into bed. Not always her bed, but a bed. I sometimes find her in hers, or ours, or Celies, but she is asleep and looks so precious. Not the stinker she usually is.

Today was the first time that I thought about it, lighting was good, etc. etc. to capture this moment on film to share.

She sleeps, she stirs, she repositions and goes back to sleep.
