tired=cranky

Yes, when Beba gets tired she gets really cranky. (You didn't think I was talking about myself, did you?!) So when I can tell she needs a nap, I wrap her up gently (!) in a blanket (you know what I mean),

and I sing her a lullaby while swaying back and forth...

And then we both lie down on the floor for a short nap. I even make little pretend snoring noises to help her sleep. It's just what she needs to recharge her batteries!
