Another argument for naps

A Lecture screamed to me tearfully by 5yo Quinn this afternoon after a fun filled, exhausting time at the park:

“Why do you make me do EVERYTHING around here. I mean, you make me shut the door on my side of the car when I get out. ”

I am so misunderstood

” You make me close the gate so Mimi can’t get hit by a car. You make me pick up my toys and you make me put away Mia’s puzzles. It is not fair. I have to do EVERYTHING around here.”

I am NOT cranky!

Then he knocked back a shot of bourbon milk and passed out on the couch.

Nap time

Silence is golden

Can you hear the silence?

    Mary, I totally love that couch. It is so soft and comfy. You would think with 4 kids that it would be scratched to death, but no. Nary a scratch. The leather is soft, but not so soft that it lost its durablility.

    Post some pics of your couches when you get them! Enjoy them!

    Hey– totally off topic, but do you like your leather furniture? Please say yes, because I am expecting delivery any day now of TWO leather couches and I am so excited!

    Mary, mom to many

    He is a total doll baby! I love watching him sleep. Poor thing was sooo tired. He played so hard at the park, I knew we were in for a meltdown.
