surely you joke
April 9, 2007
Miles really thought I was kidding today when I put him down for his nap. But I was not kidding.
He laughed and jumped and rolled around in his crib.
And then did his new favorite thing, pull the sheets off the mattress. He knows when he screams, “My sheet, mama!” I will come back in and fix it. Because I can’t stand the thought of him laying his little baby face on the plastic covered mattress.
Except for today.
After he did it for the third time this afternoon I yelled through the closed bedroom door, “Put your head on your blanket!”

What a stinker . . . a very cute stinker
April 9th, 2007 at 5:11 pmMy 2 sons do this all the time and finally i give up and wait for them to fall asleep and roll them where i need them to get the sheet on.
April 9th, 2007 at 5:20 pmSeven children! And I thought I was crazy! They’re beautiful though! Have to read more to find out the ages.
April 9th, 2007 at 5:34 pmHa! Child manipulation cracks me up, particularly when it doesn’t work.
April 9th, 2007 at 5:35 pmHa! I don’t know how you even keep him in a crib at that age. Mine could climb right out of theirs by 18 months old. So much for MY sanity.
Love your easter pics too. Adorable1
April 9th, 2007 at 5:42 pmOh dear. I had not thought of that. I don’t want my daughter to figure that little trick out!!!!!!
How can you be upset at an adorable little face like that?
April 9th, 2007 at 5:58 pmQuite a day at your house! My son has yet to put on a shirt today- just cruising around in shorts! It’s that Easter hangover!
April 9th, 2007 at 7:35 pmWhat a cutie! I wouldn’t want that cutie dimpled cheek to lay on the plastic either. =)
April 9th, 2007 at 8:07 pmOh how quickly they learn to manipulate mom.
April 10th, 2007 at 7:26 amHe has the best dimples.
Did he ever sleep?
My Liam, of the 26 month generation, will holler “Moooooomy-ooowie” in an attempt to recreate his anguish and my immediate response to the time he caught his entire leg and became stuck in between the crib slats during his nap…..3 months ago!!
Naps are so yesterday, you know.
April 10th, 2007 at 1:18 pmStop abusing him or I will fly out there and take him away.
Right after we drink a few margaritas, of course.
