Leaning Toddler Of Pizzzzzza

When I see this extremely uncomfortable-looking nap, I can only surmise that Cormac was examining the crumbs between the couch cushions.

"Mom - I think you missed a spot..."

That’s my first thought.

And then my second thought is…how did he drop his pacifier on his right side and then swing wildly over to the left?

Faceplant in progress.

We’re going to have to work on his posture.

But it’s Friday, so you all forget about your posture and cut loose a little.  I know we will!

Guest Napper #17 – Counter Collapse

As the school year draws to a close, parents everywhere are getting tired.  But, apparently, the kids are even more beat.

Melissa shared this picture of Caitlyn on Facebook and her friends urged her to send it to me.  Apparently, she put Caitlyn up on the counter while helping her son get ready for school and turned around to find her like this.

Mom, your order is up! Er...down.

Perhaps this is finally hard evidence that backpacks have gotten too heavy?  Homework too onerous?  Beds too soft?

Thanks, Melissa, for a much-needed May mid-week lift!

Foot Rest

I really don’t know what it is about my offspring that makes them so comfortable sleeping in these ridiculous foot-dangling positions.  Seems like a sign of awesomely strong abs, if you ask me.

It's genetic.

I mean, was he like a thirsty man in the desert…crawling toward the couch with his last ounce of strength?  Never to pull himself completely onto its luxurious oasis?

Head-on collision.

Now THAT is putting your feet up.

Convertible Nap

I’m so sorry I’ve been AWOL this week!  As those of you who know me well are quite aware, I am on the last week of my graduate degree and with two final papers due, my ability to post has somewhat diminished!

So imagine my delight when my friend over at My Convertible Life posted this truly top-notch, first-class stair nap featuring her daughter Pippi.

Convertible Girl/Mom is a really interesting, funny blogger who also advocates for education reform.  Definitely go see this nap and stay to read for awhile!  See you again in a few days when I emerge from my fog of paper writing!

Can I take a nap now?
