Blocking out the world

 

This is what Thing 2 does when she is tired. She can fall asleep anywhere but she almost always puts her hands over her face. It is as if she is saying it is too loud or too bright and she wants things to be quieter and more calm. The funny thing is that she does it even if it is quiet and dark. I love it. She is a good little sleeper too. When we aren't going anywhere and are on schedule here at home she sleeps through the night, from about 9 to 5 or 6. No complaints here. I need to video her when I go and get her from her crib. It is so fun. When she wakes up she doesn't cry, she talks. She talks and talks and talks. When I peek over the crib she is so excited to see me, her little body spasms with joy, her arms fly back and hit the crib mattress, her little legs kick straight out, and she starts grinning from ear to ear. I tell ya, this baby is easy to love
