schedule change

So call us crazy but we have decided to really push Sam right now and extend her evening schedule. With day light savings time hitting this weekend we decided that since she was already going to be thrown off why not just throw her off even more. The reason? We are hoping for her to eat dinner a little later and have a later bed time for several reasons. We want her to be able to eat dinner with us, at a normal dinner time and be able to spend a bit more time with Chris when he gets home from work. We are also thinking that the later bed time might help her to take better naps.
So, how is it going? Actually really well! Saturday night she stayed up later and got to see some of our friends when they came over to play cards. She was super cute giving big hugs, showing off her walking and riding on her little bike. Then Sunday she took a later afternoon nap and was able to stay up until 7:30 pm. Today is going really well too. She is napping right now and so far has napped for TWO HOURS!! Could be her longest nap in a while. Chris has volleyball tonight so I am hoping to push her a little tonight again and see if we can go and watch him play.
It's only been a couple of days but I am feeling really positive about the change and hoping that it will mean more productive (or lazy!) days for me and more fun times in the evening with Chris.
Hopefully she will continue to cooperate...that could happen...maybe?
