Such A Boy

This guy hasn't been napping lately. Which worked out nicely since we needed to try getting him to sleep in his big boy bed. He's just tired enough at night that we can get him to fall asleep in bed while reading or just tickling his back. But today he took a nap. A LONG, LATE nap. He woke up so groggy. Jess handed him some cheetos, because when he wakes up groggy food is the one thing that keeps him from turning grumpy. He sat alone on the couch, silently eating his cheetos with this look on his face.
It was a success and he turned happy soon after. He's been playing his boyish games. He's always "Falling" off of things, like the picnic table or the couch, very slowly with his hands outstretched for you to save him. He's always slowly yelling "AAAAAAAAAH, FALLING, HELP!" Or he'll be a monster or tiger and growl at you and ask you "Scared?" A few minutes ago he had a G.I. Joe screaming for help while trapped in a can opener.

He's so funny. Didn't Matt used to do that pretend-falling thing? For some reason I have some memory of being at Fireman's Park on the slide when we were all little. . .

He probably did. It seems like my kids both play like Matt did. Paige's ponies are always being tied up by bad guys. Matt was always tying up his G.I. Joes. Cason probably did take the falling thing after him.

Haha. I didn't even notice the orange fingers when I took it.
