And they sleep...

I love to watch my girls sleep. They are just so peaceful! It makes me happy and sad at the same time. I remember watching them sleep when they were babies and it makes me realize how big they are now. If we've had a "trying" day, I forget about it when I check on them that night and see them in their beds, so innocent. I love to see babies on their tummies with their bottoms in the air and their hands tucked underneath them. Every now and then, I catch #2 sleeping that way. I don't catch her doing it very often, but when I do, I treasure it. I know that she won't do it much longer, and when she stops, I know that those days will be gone forever. That makes me sad. I remember watching her crawl around our house and thinking....I need to remember this, because when she starts walking, we'll never have another little baby crawling around this house again. I got a picture of her sleeping on her tummy...I'm sure it will be one of the last times I catch her doing it.




The night before we left #2 was playing with this felt doll set. I checked on her at 11:30pm and she was in her bed asleep and the doll set was on the floor, all piled up. At 3:30am I checked on her again (on my way to bed). This is what I found...she had gotten up and played with her dolls some more and fell asleep on the floor! I had been up working, and never even heard her get up and play!

Day #2 - in Frisco - #2 was the last one to wake up.


Day #3 - The girls got to sleep on a murphy bed (a bed that folds up into the wall). We took this picture before we woke them up to start our first day at Sea World.


This picture was taken in the parking lot/driveway leaving Sea World. We didn't even make it to the main road and #2 was out!
After our first day at Sea World, #1 crashed. She was the first one to go to sleep that night...followed by Ryan.

Then #2...who fell asleep at my feet! I was sitting in that chair working on the computer and she was still going from her "power nap." She finally laid down and fell asleep.


Naptime on Day #4....#2 in her precious "baby pose!"


Dad & #1....this is when #1 informed me that she hadn't slept....she just rested! Looks like she is sleeping pretty good to me! I love how they are in the same position!

I did get rest, too. I'm just usually the last one to give it up. When everyone is sleeing I see that as my opportunity to accomplish a lot! I get so much done because there aren't any interruptions!
