I dare you to tell me there’s anything sweeter than a sleeping child

by kristas on May 26, 2010

Because if you don’t awww, just a little, over these pictures, you probably kick kittens too. 

baby naps

sleeping baby

 

Do you remember when I whined ad nauseum about my child not napping? I’m happing to report she has gotten much better. (Note to self, you’re gonna jinx it) These photos were snapped over the weekend after she had been asleep for TWO WHOLE HOURS and I didn’t care if she woke up.  120 MINUTES of glorious napping for the babe gave me time to eat, drink a cup of tea, watch the season finale of Grey’s Anatomy (not really good Saturday morning viewing, by the way) and shower. 

And, yep, in that top picture she is cuddling with a fish that she pulled off of her mobile at the beginning of the nap.  And, yes, the mobile has now been removed from the crib.   Mean mommy.

I can’t tell you how many sleeping baby pictures I have of my little girl. Sometimes I just go in and watch her while she’s sleeping. Sounds kinda creepy now that I type it out, but it’s the only time that she still looks like a baby. Adorable!

I. Die. To cute!!!!

So beautiful! Her mobile matches her jammies. You should win a mom of the year award for that alone! ;)

Adorable! I love the little butt in the air. :) I do not think there is anything sweeter.

I don’t really like cats or kittens, but I love me some sleeping babies! There is nothing more precious and peaceful. She’s adorable awake and asleep!

Aaaw, yes I agree, sleeping babies are the equivalent of ambrosia. I moss it, my littlest is 7 and I miss it!!! The head smell, the little hand grasping around my finger and the eyes gazing up in complete innocence.

AWWWWW… so sweet. I love that her bum is in the air.

OMG, what adorable shots. I am personally a big fan of butt-up-in-the-air-baby-snooze. That’s a real term, but the way. I coined it. :) You’ve inspired me to shoot off more photos of the babes zonked out. You’ll love pulling these out when they get older.
