Baby girl is mad at me because I want her to take a nap and she is emphatically saying "NO!" by screaming her little lungs out. Its the worst part about being a mom for me. I hate the inner battle between trying to be consistent and just wanting to be a softie and go snuggle until shes happy again. I keep telling myself... just 5 more minutes and then if she still isn't calming down then I'll go get her....
I've done this about 3 times now. And each time I go get a slice of the whole wheat bread I made this morning to try and kill some time. This girl better go to sleep quick or before I know it I will single-handedly eat half of the loaf....
