more curious sleeping habits

you know how much i love taking pictures of payton sleeping!

like most moms i always check on my babes a few times before i finally go to sleep. they're just so cute. jackson has always been good about sleeping in his own bed. Payton on the other hand, he's a bed hopper. It didn't start until nate was gone. i like to think he started climbing into my bed to comfort me because i was so sad. by the time nate left for "the desert" he'd either climb in bed with me or climb in bed with jackson. 

now that life has returned to some form of normalcy he's still a little wanderer. i'm thinking he's a sleep walker. i was a really big sleep walker when i was little. methinks he inherited some of my crazy sleep habits! i've been known to fall asleep anywhere no matter how uncomfortable the circumstances. oh the stories i could tell.

anyhow, after i did my face washing & teeth brushing last night i came out to the living room to find him like this. he slept in this position for a solid 30 minutes. 

i love it!

yes...

....i am posting yet another picture of payton sleeping. i'm just trying to understand how this is comfortable??

Sleepin' Babies

 I am fascinated by the sleeping habits of my boys.  I love that they are so close that they like to sleep with each other.  Even on nights when I say they have to sleep in their own beds, Jackson still sneaks down into Payton's bed and I find them like this.

 It's as if they fell asleep talking to each other.

 I found them like this last night.  They're cuddling.  They're actually cuddling.

 

 Sharing a pillow.  Look at those cute little faces.  And yes, that is a Santa hat on Jackson's head.  I think he was pretending to be Santa to make Payton laugh. 

Buddy

When my husband left I confessed to one of my girlfriends that although I was sad that he was leaving, I was excited for Payton to share my bed with me again.

The Curious Sleeping Habits Of Mr. P

Payton's sleeping habits boggle my mind. He generally won't nap in his bed, but he never fails to fall asleep in the shopping cart at Target. Every once in a while if he's really really worn out he'll fall asleep in the middle of playing.

This is just a sampling of positions I find him sleeping in.
