We now have a night time play ritual. We go upstairs into Sofia’s playroom and party before bedtime. By “party” I mean sit around and try to keep Sofia entertained with her toys. She crawls on the them, tries to eat them, crawls on us, makes us laugh, etc… We do this until Sofia enters crabby mode, this is an immediate sign that it is time for a bath and then bedtime. Bedtime is sometimes challenging because the battle to get Sofia’s jammies on can be quite a struggle. By this time she is sometimes loudly verbally protesting. This whole ordeal is a delicate process in which timing is critical. When done just right it is a thing of beauty and Sofia goes to sleep right as her head hits the crib without much fuss. Below are some playtime pics…
That tent rocks…can I have it when she outgrows it?

Really?
Life just isn’t fair. You’ll see how it is when you have your first child. The items you mention above are just concessions you get for selling your soul to corporate America.
