Proof that Parker does sleep...sometimes

When he does decide to sleep, look out! It doesn't matter what, or in some cases WHO is in the way.


Who needs a bed when you have squishy beanbag chairs?



Nothing follows the reading of a good book better than a good nap.




Sometimes, a good book...


cannot be finished, because the good nap is just that good!



Other times, the good book (or magazine in this case) is so good, you need to hide so you can finish it before being interrupted. Few places are better for hiding, reading or sleeping than the floor of the bedroom closet.



Where's a boy to go when he's on noise overload and wants to escape?
Why, the big couch that swallows you up of course.

Yes, he could breathe just fine...plenty of room under the cushions, just didn't look like it.

(**He wore this same shirt in several of these pics, but they were actually four different occasions...some not even in the same months. Also, notice that in the above picture, he's wearing two shirts. He really likes that green shirt, but he really hates the feel of the seams. His solution is to wear a shirt under it. No pants, no socks, but two shirts...it's all good)


He really does have a bed of his own.

Promise.

In fact, lately he has started sleeping a few hours a night there.

Really.

Some nights...

Well, some nights, he is sound asleep before his head

even

hits

the

pillow...zzzzz

See? The pillow is several inches away still...


I think this was a once in a lifetime moment. One where he just couldn't hang in there a second longer.


Parker has learned...

Brothers are cozy to cuddle with for sure.

Beanbag chairs are squishy and soft no doubt.

Big fluffy sofas swallow you right up.

Bedroom closet floors are perfect for sleeping when you toss in a favorite blanket.

Bunkbeds built by daddy are the best bed, especially when you were able to help with the building.

But

There is no better place

Nope

No better place on earth to fall asleep,

than in the arms of your daddy...

  2. All the pics were great, each one just got funnier and funnier but the one with him half on and half off the bed really had me laughing. And your husband-built bunkbed looks like something my husband would come up with.
