Taking a Nap with Dad

Olivia can be a hard one to put down for a nap when no one else is sleeping. So on weekends, Russell usually wants to take a nap anyway so I encourage him to take one to help out Olivia. This is the usual scenario after Olivia tucks Russell in in Isabelle's bed:


Her bed lies empty


No need to be quiet while loudly
playing with Barbies, because....


Dad is oblivious and peaceful.
At least someone is getting some rest!

sidenote: to give Olivia some credit, she does often get in her bed after playing for 15-20 minutes and goes to sleep. Occasionally we are unsure if she has had a nap or not but as long as she's in there by herself for a while I am happy!

HAHA--look at Olivia's guilty smile. And does Russell always smile in his sleep? You really need to let her tuck you in sometime.

I'm sure Der is jealous that Olivia's Dad can sleep in the afternoon and sleep through someone playing. You're great at taking fun pictures to add to your blog!

How can you blame her with a great play area like that? Even I might have trouble sleeping. . .
