Best Shot Monday


ahhh, hello monday! here we are to share our best shot.

this is bean on saturday evening. we were having a rough day. she was being her stubborn self. i was tired of it. i gave her a graham cracker and some milk. i left the room to cool off. well, at first i could hear her talking to to the magpie. then things got awfully quiet. you know, that quiet that kinda freaks you out because it usually means they've done something bizarre and messy. BUT this is what i found when i came into the room. bean had finished her crackers and milk and fell asleep! apparently someone did need a nap but was not about to leave the party to do it!! she slept there for a half and hour while i cleaned up from the party. it worked out well for all of us. :)

i called my husband to tell him how cute and funny it was. his response: "did you check to make sure she was still alive?!?!" (what??) my answer: "dude she is snoring, i think she is fine!"

do you have anything to share this fine monday before thanksgiving? (mmmmmm, thanksgiving!) head on over to tracey's to share and check out everyone elses best shots!

Who wants to leave to take a nap? (Aside from grown-ups, that is?) this is too adorable.

A picture you will treasure forever.

That is too sweet - and congrats on getting a little nap out of her!

awww! She looks so precious there! Hard to believe a little person so angelic can cause so much trouble, huh?! Nadia used to fall asleep in her highcahir not infrequently...it's been a while now, tho!

Awww! I love when they fall asleep in odd places. Love the natural lighting here too. :)

How sweet! She is so precious in that picture. Harrison has dozed off at dinner a couple times after a LONG, rough I-don't-want-to-nap day. One time it was so deep I put him in bed at 6:30 and he didn't wake until morning! (6:30am...)

I know what you mean about the "quiet" thing!!
