I'm getting really tired of cranky, overtired children on Mondays :-(

I never put the kids to bed if they come cranky. I carry on with our day and just let them cry. I think the problem is the kids aren't in a proper routine and it is so important to keep them on it even if it means having to listen to screaming kids.

I have a 16 month old who is full-time and a 12 month old and 15 month old (usually never here at the same time). We only nap once a day (from 12:45-3) and I never let kids sleep past 3.

Hopefully your day goes better for you.
