[quote=Anonymous]Mine are almost 8, 5, and the baby is almost 2. We have slightly less of an age gap than you and my older two were big nappers, so they would actually all nap/rest for the first year or so of the baby's life. But our loose approach for the baby was to respect the afternoon nap as much as possible but the morning nap was catch as catch can, meaning a lot of stroller or car naps, and to just deal with a cranky baby sometimes. She is now down to one nap and we have a pretty wide window for it too. But yeah, I think you probably just have to accept the fact that baby doesn't get a set schedule if you want to do a lot of stuff as a family, and be able to shrug off the occasional meltdown. Our third is not actually very easy going at all, but she has learned that her meltdowns don't get her much traction.[/quote]
