This afternoon the house was quiet. Audrey was napping, Owen fell asleep watching Pete's Dragon [I don't blame him, that movie bores me to tears] and Oliver was happily playing in the bumbo. I decided to celebrate the first day of September the way any overly tired mother does. I went to catch a few Zzz's myself. So. . .I whisked Oliver off to bed with me. I thought that I would nurse him a little and off we'd both be in dreamland.
Part of my plan worked. I nursed him. Still awake. Then I swaddled him up. Still awake. Finally, I closed my eyes, hoping the sound of my repetitive breathing would do the trick. Um, no. Every time I'd sneak a peek at him I would see this. . .
What kind of mother would I be if I didn't snatch up my camera + document that darling face?
Maybe tomorrow I'll get a nap.

That is too cute! I love this baby stage where they are so happy and fun to play with. What a cute boy!
Oh so cute...I caught a nap this afternoon and it felt heavenly.
ps I received my gorgeous mommy calling cards today and they're just lovely! Thank you so very much!!!
I think I jinx myself everytime I say/think the word "nap".
I'm so glad you did take a picture. He is too adorable not to break out the camera!
Here's to hoping you get a nap tomorrow. Just don't mention the "n" word to him and maybe he'll be fooled ;)
You are killing me, that face is to DIE for. He is turning into the most handsome baby ever.
Okay that is adorable! That's the face that could brighten anybody's day. He's too cute for words.
oh, that face! it made me smile just as big as his (without the tongue though!)
ha ha--with a face as cute as that, who could be mad about a missed nap? Love that tongue!
I love your fall banner! And that picture is nothing short of perfection. Aaahhh...baby tongues!
So cute! I can suddenly see the resemblance to his siblings!
beautiful
That is the cutest little tongue ever. He is such a sweet little guy...who can sleep with him around?
It would be hard to sleep when that smily little face was beaming back at you.
Oh my gosh... that is awesome. Best feeling to see a happy face smiling at you, wanting to play or basking in your presence. Too cute.
What a love! I have tried this with Danee and found tapping her behind puts her to sleep rather quickly.... every once in a while.
LOL about Pete's Dragon.
I wish I could wake up to that little face every morning! That tongue cracks me up.
I have been awake since 2am. That lovely picture made the sleepless night worthwhile. You should blow the picture up to a poster. It would make me smile everytime I see it. That is why you always need a camera around a baby. Isn't life grand.
What a happy face! So beautiful.
Wow he is ADORABLE!!! Hes a keper:)
what an adorable picture!
Too cute. I truly believe moments like that are God's way of enabling us to survive those first few months (years maybe) of Motherhood. When it seems like no moment is our own.
