sleep transition

Sweet Chase is starting to need a little less sleep. Yesterday he totally skipped his third nap. Up until then he was sleeping 3 naps at about 2 hours each. I put him down around 4:30 as usual, thinking he was tired enough to fall into blissful dreamy land and POP...5 minutes later he was pretty vocal about his dislike of being in bed. Soothing and a re-tuck did nothing to remedy the situation. So I fed him around 5:30 and he was almost too tired to eat, so I fed him only half the bottle and then went into this room again at 9 to "top off the tank". He still slept the whole night through.

Again today, the third nap is a no-go (he just took a little 30 minute refreshing snooze in the swing). We will find this new perfect sleep cycle soon, or maybe we already have! 3 naps and then BAM...down to 2 in a blink of an eye. He is happy and content when he is awake, so hey, whatever works!
