NAP? With a Three Year Old Running the House?

So...Wes works all the time and one quiet Saturday when Emerson was napping, I had a crazy thought. "Why don't I just close my eyes for a quick little nap? Campbell is very well behaved and peacefully sitting in his recliner watching Noggin." WRONG! I awoke a couple of minutes later to this.
Apparently we thought it would be a great idea to use our Morning Miracle hairspray and fix our hair by ourselves. No more napping for me.
On another note, Campbell is really excelling in school (My opinion). He knows all his letters by sight and can write them (some better than others). He knows most of the sounds and can name many different things that start with each letter (q, u, v, x, y, and z give him a hard time. After all, so few kid words begin with those letters). He can also write his name without any prompting and even spell it out loud. Don't get me started on numbers...he does just as well with those. He can do a lot more, but I won't continue to go on and on. Best of all, he loves learning. We are so proud of you, Campbell!!!
As for Princess Pea Pod, she is just fantastic. She is sitting up, rolls from front to back, and scoots backwards on her belly. She still LOVES her food, like her mama! The funniest thing she is doing right now is she LOVES to hang upside down. When she is on mine or Wesley's lap, she throws herself backward and will hang completely upside down until you pull her up. She even tries to do it in her swing...Good thing she is buckled in tight! She still only has the two bottom teeth, but she is starting to chew on everything again, so maybe more are on the way. She is such a blessing...HAPPY all the time and the best sleeper imaginable. I really don't want to rub it in, but girlfriend will go to sleep at about 6:30 at night and we wake her up in the morning when it is time for school. If she wakes up before we are ready for her, she just rolls over on her back and talks and squeals to herself! We just love you, Fatterhorn!


Sorry for all the braggin', but I rarely ever do it and my kids just make me so proud everyday!

And Lisa O., if you are reading this...I love ya and think about you all the time...Bad friend for not picking up the phone as often as I should! Getting close, hang in there!
