What can you do when they take late naps?

I tried to keep him up. I really did.

…but Jonah had a busy weekend. He is exhausted.

He went down at 6pm on the couch.

It’s bedtime (9pm)… he’s still asleep.

If he wakes up now, he’ll want to eat… it will be another hour-ish before I can even begin to start the bedtime routine.

He won’t want to go back down.

Even with the melatonin, I’m gearing up to pull an all-nighter.

I’ll call “asleep by 2am” a victory.

Wish me luck!
