Supposed nap turned into playing in the sand

It's often the case with children, that if you have planned that they should sleep or take a nap at a time, they kind of sense it and do just the opposite, Erik had been at the doctor's office to get his vaccinations, and was supposed to have a nap afterwards. But that's definitely not what he had in mind. First his father tried to lay him in his bed and when that didn't work I took him out in his strolley. He lay there ever so still with his pacifier, but no matter how long I walked with him, he just didn't fall asleep. So after about 30 minutes we both got tired of this game, and I gave up and took him to the playground instead :-)
