To Nap Or Not To Nap..........

Mason is going through the nap transition that all kids seem to do around his age. He still seems to need a nap, but there are some days that he just won't take one, although this week has been a good nap week for him. A couple of weeks ago, the kids were watching TV around 5:00p.m., and when I walked into the living room, this is what I saw....


He always sleeps with his hands behind his head. I refer to it as "man mode". We also moved him into a "big boy" bed a couple of weeks ago. He absolutely loves it. I put off moving him as long as possible because he never tried to climb out of his bed, and I thought it would definitely make it so he would not take naps anymore. BUT, he will still take naps, and stay in his room, most days. I'm so glad. I usually wake him up after an hour so he will still go to bed at night. If he sleeps any longer than 90 minutes, he has a hard time going to bed.

Entertainment

These photos were taken about a month ago. The snow is now all gone, Yeah! I tried to shovel a path through the snow so the kids could get to the playset to play. When Mason saw what I was doing, he immediatley took over shoveling. He shoveled for at least an hour, piling snow into the grey bucket. If the girls even tried to have a turn, he let them know it was his shovel. I'm sure he felt like he was a backhoe, moving dirt. That is his dream job.

Scotlyn's Birthday Party

Image
Scotlyn's birthday is this coming Thursday, but because her birthday always falls around General Conference time, we try to have her party the week before conference. She has been counting down the days until her party all week. It was a lot of fun, and was so nice to have her party outside this year. Every year on her birthday, the weather has been cold, until this year. This is a picture of her a couple of days ago, when she decided she was going to build a hot air balloon and fly to Salt Lake. She packed a change of clothes in her backpack and took food with her in the box. She also had a few toys with her, but when she was ready to fly, she realized that there was not room for her to sit in the box. She kept saying to me, "Mom, this is really going to work. I'm going to Salt Lake, I'll be back later". It was too cute. She never did make it to Salt Lake, but she didn't seem too disappointed that she didn't fly. I love how at this age, they lo...
