I think you know where I'm going with this.
I had a few kind friends say things like "My kid never figured out that they could get out of bed and play with toys instead of sleeping. You're good to go! I bet Josie will keep being good!" (You know who you are.) Now, I still like these friends, I do. But to them, I say, YOU WERE SO VERY WRONG.
My little firecracker decided yesterday that she didn't want to take her nap. She mostly just talked and sang and ... oh yeah, she got out of bed and read books. In the past when she didn't fall asleep immediately she would just sit in the bed and talk and sing and maybe look over the edge. Yesterday she took the plunge, and apparently she liked it.
Today at naptime, instead of sleeping, she did THIS:
Does she look penitent to you?
Does she???
Okay, it might be hard to tell, since she is so adorable, so let me also tell you this. AS I was taking this picture, she turned to me and said -- I kid you not -- "What? Nap."
"What? Nap," indeed.
oh goodness. that's kind of impressive though. I would like to see some time lapse photography of nap time.
ReplyDeleteWell, I could have taken pictures of the monitor if she hadn't SHOOK THE BOOKCASE UNTIL THE CAMERA FELL DOWN AND WAS POINTED AT THE CEILING.
Deletegenius...
DeleteShook?
DeleteShaken?
Done shaked real hard?
Oh yeah, and today she got it down, looked right into it (at me) and then unplugged it.
DeleteBahaha. That look on her face says, "C'mon. Did you really think I was just going to stay in my bed when I could get into anything and everything I wanted? You're dumber than you look."
ReplyDeleteLove it.
Yeah, it's a perfect "what?" face. Stinker.
DeleteOh that sweet girl. Lindsey and her are only allowed to speak when supervised. I don't want Lindsey getting any ideas from her! Haha!
ReplyDeleteSupervised Skype sessions only it is! :)

ReplyDeleteYes and yes. :)
ReplyDeleteOkay.
ReplyDeleteJust clicked over to this from twitter.
LAUGHING SO HARD.
and I have a cold, so it's really like a cough-laugh-choking deal.
oh, and because it sounded like I was dying, The Prince AND his 17 year old brother had to come see what was so funny.
All three of us love this post. And Josie. So awesome.
Glad to be of assistance. :)
DeleteOh my gosh. That face. How do you manage to discipline that FACE?! I would probably give her my kidneys if she asked.
ReplyDeleteTell me about it!!
