Nap Time Mishaps

I would like to start off this post by saying upfront that I do not have any pictures. You will all be disappointed by this fact as you read the story, but I decided I should still share it. So, as you know from our previous posts, Levi is now in a toddler bed. Well, the first few weeks in the toddler bed went great. We'd lay Levi down and he would roll over and go to sleep.

However, within the last week, Levi has realized that he has a lot more independence and has been taking advantage of that independence. He goes to bed at night great, but nap times seem to be another story. All last week, instead of going right to sleep, he would play for about half an hour quietly and then go to sleep. At first I was putting him back to bed, but then I realized it wasn't a big deal. If he wants to play a little and give me a little more free time, that is not a problem.

Famous last words, right? Monday this became a problem. After an hour and a half, I was getting frustrated because he wasn't going to sleep. Then, I heard the crashing. I ran upstairs to see what was wrong, getting more worried with each step because I heard nothing. I opened the door and found...

All the drawers to his dresser/changing table open and empty, Levi sitting on top of the changing table, the diaper stacker and wipes warmer on the floor, clothes everywhere, his hamper empty, one shelf of his book case on the ground, the book case completely cleared off, and Levi sitting ON TOP of his changing table saying "Hi!"

I was shocked. This is where I should have thought to grab a camera, but instead I took him down, put him back in bed, and told him not to get up again. Shortly after that he finally fell asleep. What a nap time, huh? Let's hope this does not continue.

Our Little Dare Devil

Although Levi is only 19 months old, he continues to run, climb, and destroy everything in his sight. Along with being adventurous, he is fearless. Here are a couple of the latest videos of him playing at the park in front of our house.

Two Photo Tuesday

Our son's continued shoe obsession...





For those of you who are not aware, Levi has a little bit of a shoe obsession. He wakes up in the morning and puts on shoes before he even comes out of his room. As soon as he is done taking a bath or with a diaper change, he wants his shoes right back on. If we don't put them on, he just sits there, crying, saying "Shoes? Shoes?" It is the weirdest thing. So, these are two of the most recent shoe pictures that show his obsession. Enjoy!
