sleepy head

Olivia is a tricky sleeper. I've always wanted her to fall asleep on my shoulder--like she use to do when she was just a little newborn. But, it never happens. She only falls asleep in the car or in her crib.

Yesterday was different. It was getting close to nap time and I knew she was starting to get sleepy so I turned on Mulan and we started watching. She was transfixed. We cuddled and I sang the songs. It was long before I looked over and her head was falling forward. I quickly scooped her up and put her on my shoulder and she didn't wake up! I just held her for a few minutes before setting her in her crib for her nap. I took a picture because this never happens and it was something to be remembered. Love when I get to enjoy cuddles with my girl.

Oh isn't that the best? My boy only sleeps in his crib or the car too. I miss him being little. She's perfect, glad you got to get a pic.

You're such a sweet mom. I don't know if I ever had the thought that i WANTED them to sleep on my shoulder, but now I'm sad I didn't. So precious.
