Growth spurts are tough

So far in 2011 we have really learned that growth spurts are tough.  With the oldest one using sore legs to try and get out of chores or cleaning her room or growing molars as an excuse to skip brushing her teeth to amazing amount of food that Big D can consume about every other day.  But our little G-Man is by far the funniest.  He works strictly from the "Play hard, Rest easy" way of life.  We have started to notice that we have a bunch of pictures of him falling asleep in strange places.  He also has an AWESOME snore that I think must be an inherited thing.  He has also mastered the ability to sneak into bed with his siblings.  He knows better than to try that with me, he'll end up on the floor.  So here is a collage of G-man and all the recent photos of him sleeping or literally losing it while doing something else.  Enjoy!

This is about a year ago because he still has the high chair but this is typical of his sleep eating routine
What was funny about the car sleeping was he went from talking to us to full snoring in like 60 seconds.  Classic.
One afternoon I went in the back yard to gather G-man and pick up his toys.  I sent him inside to get in the bathtub.  A few minutes later when I can in this is where he was about 5 feet from the back door.
When you can't make it from the bathtub to your bedroom for some PJs you are a REALLY tired little boy.

One night he was missing from his bed..... we found him in Meg's bed.  He likes to get against the wall so they don't push him out.
Now D & G share a room but this is still funny how Big D slid over so G Man could climb on board.
I'm not totally immune.   In my defense he was snuggling with me when he fell asleep and then I was done in.


More sleep eating
Holding what is left of his hamburger.......  to tired to put it down.

Top of the stairs..... almost like he was headed for his bed and just couldn't quite make it that far.

Play Hard - Rest Easy
