For the last couple of months, Caityn has been refusing to take a nap. It certainly makes for a very long day, but then she goes to bed much much earlier, which means I get some time to myself in the evening. Instead of a nap, I try to get her to take a "rest", which usually just consists of her watching TV while Sean naps and I clean the house.
Today I tried for 2 hours to get her to "rest", but she was just all over the place. Finally, while we were both sitting on the couch, I just said to her,
"Caity, I don't want you to lie down. Don't you close your eyes. No resting allowed."
She looked at me kind of funny, but then I left to go do some dishes while she watched cartoons. Here is what I found when I was done with the dishes.
Go reverse psychology!!

Genius! I'm trying this tomorrow!
You need to sing the "Stay Awake" song from Mary Poppins too.
I wonder if it works in husbands?????
Too funny, I will definitely have to remember this.
LOL! I am definitely trying this one...with Aiyana and the hubby!
Ha, ha. "OOOH KAYLEE..."
Dana, let me know if it works with husbands too?
love it! I use this trick with veggies a lot :)
I'm going to try this with my husband! "Dont you dare wash a single dish, and dont pick up any of your clothes!!" :)
I will have to try this too. The only way I can get Aaron to sleep is have him lie on the couch and watch Home & garden TV. Works every time.
