Guest Napper #78 – Facedown Friday
I’d be shocked if there’s a parent out there who can’t relate to this image on a Friday. Heck, I’d be surprised if any adult out there doesn’t feel like this by the end of today. In fact, I feel like this now, having been awakened at 6am to do some surprise tick removal on one of my boys. All this outdoor spring play not only causes exhaustion (see below) but it also causes infestation, apparently.
Um. Ew. (Please send Deep Woods Off)
Anyway, Oliver, here, is demonstrating the kid craziness that can happen when spring has sprung.
Flop.
Ironically, he won’t be doing much springing for the next hour or two.
I see some crumbs...a lego...your engagement ring...
Unless, that is, he’s really awake and spelunking for a half-eaten graham cracker. I could understand that. Playing outside can make a guy hungry!
Elmo likes graham crackers!
Happy Friday, good friends! May your weather be fine and your naps be lengthy. Over and OUT.
Guest Napper #77 – All Cooped Up
What the heck, Mother Nature? Just when we had come to terms with having, like, NO WINTER, and gotten the water table out and planted the basil…well…this is basically unacceptable.
Paige shared this photo of her son and her husband. I’m not sure what her husband thinks about being banished indoors back to the couch, but her son seems to be, like, TOTALLY OVER IT.
So over the cold weather.
You might say this guy is down on his knees, begging the warm weather please to come home.
Okay, well he’s on someone’s knees, anyway.
Wake me when the temperatures get back into the sixties, m’kay?
Guest Napper #75 – Sunny Snoozin’
I’m a tad bit afraid that Mel‘s little girl is having dreams about global warming, because this is some seriously nutty weather we’re getting. Unlike William, who likes to spend these days napping under the grill cover, this lazy lass has managed to plant herself in a place of proper appreciation of (and protection from) the sun.
That “75” is for 75 degrees, fool.
My advice is, soak up the sun now, because we could just as well be getting snowstorms in June this year.
Mother Nature has gone rogue.

I’m a little frustrated. I mean, I should have another month to use up these cozy, wintry, baby bear naps. Instead, the Cherry Blossom Festival is on fast-forward and everyone is begging to play at the water table.
What kind of weather is this, people????
Well, no day appears sunny enough to bring this cub out of his den. My recollection of the sequence of events on the day I took this photo is as follows:
Mom returns home with cranky boy and he climbs on the couch and refuses to remove his coat (see above).
Mom goes to put in a load of laundry and returns to find him sitting on the floor, dazed. Instead of waking up, however, he cuddles up with the nubbly rug and the hardwood floor and commences Nap 2.0.
What? It’s the latest napplication. You know, all the rage.
Those rugs from the big box stores are so…soft?
So that’s how the nap happened.
Spring is coming.
I’m getting sweaty just watching this nap. Did the A/C just come on?
Now excuse me while I go take some allergy pills.
