Being a mattress

Sometimes Clara suckers me in and I end up being her mattress. Today for her third nap, I tried to put her down twice and she would have NONE of it. I ended up feeding her on the couch and she fell asleep in my arms. I ended up holding her for her whole nap. She is so sweet when she sleeps. Her eyelashes are so long and she is so beautiful and peaceful. It is so hard not to kiss her or touch her when she is asleep. Today when she was napping, I cut her hair because it was getting too long (her second haircut). She almost woke up for that.

Sometimes she sleeps for a long time when she is with me or for a very short time. Today it was a long time. I like to nap with her, cuddle her in arm and lay down on the couch. Though sometimes she wakes crying very loudly when we do that, maybe she is uncomfortable. Who knows! Though she had a hard time going to bed tonight because she napped for so long. I tried to nurse her to make her sleepy and she started whimpering. She is funny.
