Lately dd has been staying up for about 10 hours and then going to sleep for the night That's fine with me, I think I actually would like to cut out naps but she is still going back to taking naps too. Its like an on again off again thing with her. Is this the beginning of her getting ready to cut out her naps? :shrug

For me, it would be a "setting her up for success" thing. If she handled no naps without a glitch, no big deal, cut them out! But if I noticed her getting overly tired, grouchy or generally miserable, the naps would stay, because she obviously needs them. :heart

The thing is she seems to be okay staying up when she does but she is still going back to naps. And even if she wasn't feeling okay without the naps I have NEVER been able to just MAKE her go take a nap no matter how tired she is. She sleeps when she wants and thats all there is to it.
