There is something so amazing and wondrous about watching a little newborn sleep. There is always just a little bit of the face visible, and sometimes they wiggle out their fingers as well.
She was the most amazingly well-behaved little one! Her very calm and relaxed (though a little tired) parents had already managed to get her into a routine. (More photos on Facebook)
During school holidays routine seems to go out the window. My youngest suffered the most, since she still needs an afternoon nap. I had to find a compromise, allowing her to sleep without the boys tearing the house down from boredom.
I let the boys play Wii, for as long as she sleeps. They make a lot of noise and wake her, game time is obviously over. The motivation seems to work! (It can be fun watching their expressions while they play!)
And sleep she does. Amazing how the tantrums go away when she gets enough rest…
