Motorcycle Fun and Naps are Back!

My mom and Dave stopped by tonight and Dave took the kids for a "spin" in the cul-de-sac on his motorcycle. The kids LOVED it! I figured that not much could happen going 2 miles an hour in a circle...Note: London had not been swimming today; she just was practicing "ballerina stuff" in the terrible floatie swimsuit. Lookin good! Just another note: my kids have the bad habit of playing with and sometimes breaking my camera; hence the awesome smudges that now appear in every picture I take. Hopefully I'll be sporting a new one soon! (we just got this one before Christmas, so not the greatest timing on the kids' part!)

Beck held onto the helmet for dear life!


Looking good there London!

London was done with naps there for a while, but lately, she's a regular napper. I'm not complaining! She falls asleep in the car if we're driving past about 12:30, or just dozes off during her quiet time in the basement. Plus, unless she sleeps for more than like 2 hours, she still goes to bed at a decent time. Below are some recent napping pictures; one sleeping on a cereal box on the basement couch, and the other falling asleep under her bed- mid tantrum. Pretty cute!

Another solid outfit choice by London; a neon pink printed t-shirt coupled with a plaid wool skirt. Nice!

Lucky YOU...nap time back! I envy. Tanner is a wired boy if he takes a nap, so they don't happen much :)
Fun bike ride, I bet the kids loved it.
I love London's outfits. Hilarious!

Madelyn has been done for awhile with naps too, but for some reason this summer is helping her take a nap and sleep at night too. Love it! I will take them sure! Your kids are adorable!

Oh your kids are so CUTE!! I love the sleeping on the cereal box thats great. Love the bike pic's that is so much fun. Kev has a Chopper and Brohlen wants to ride it so bad, but daddy said he has to be 10. So every morning he tells me he is 10 years old... Keep the cute pictures coming!!

My kids love their motorcycle rides around the block too! It scares me so I have to try not to think about it while they're gone.

I'm big on little-kid naps too...the house is suddenly so peaceful. It's a wonderful break!

Naptime is so wonderful! I hope with Emma it doesn't end until 1st grade! They looked super cool on the motorcycles as well!

I love the floaty. At least there was cushion between her and her dad. The changing of outfits is so funny, but I hate watching the laundry piles add up.

I wish Logan would take naps. If I wear him our during the day he will eventually crash. But, that doesn't happen that often.
Looks like the kids loved the motorcycle ride..Logan would have been in heaven. When he sees one he says he wants to buy one...funny kid.

I love the picture of Beck in the helmet that is too cute!! I wish kens still took naps more for me!!!

Okay, all those pictures are so darling. The pink floatation device is hilarious. And so are the nap pics.

I love naptime. I mourned when Levi gave it up when he turned 4. But, on the other hand, it's kind of nice when they grow out of it because there's no 'rude awakening' if you know what I mean.
