Noelle the giraffe


This post is inspired by a cute thing that Noelle did at nap time today. Noelle had been up in her room for quite some time supposedly going to sleep. However, it was evident by the frequent sounds of footsteps and giggles or singing, that there was not much sleep going on. I had resigned to the fact that she would not be falling asleep today but then it was quiet for a little while. Laura stopped by around that time and had to get something of hers she had left upstairs. She comes downstairs with a smile on her face and so I ask her if Noelle is asleep. She says yes and that she is in her giraffe costume asleep in her bed. So at some point Noelle had put on her giraffe costume, climbed back in bed and fell asleep. I couldn't resist taking pictures of course even at the risk of waking her up.  





Later when she woke up she was being shy...Jenna was over...so she didn't want to come downstairs. She was being grumpy as well as shy so she curled up in a ball and this is the shot we got from downstairs.



I also took some cute pics of Josh and the girls so I thought I'd post those as well. I know they are my kids but don't you want to just squeeze them?!!!

Okay, Noelle falling asleep in her giraffe costume is hilarious!!! I can just see her putting it on, playing and singing and laughing in it while she was supposed to be sleeping...How funny!

And the pics of Josh and the girls are priceless.

It was hysterical. I thought it was odd that you let her sleep in her costume. She is awesome!

Those girls are delicious!

Laura, I'm so glad you found her like that! It's one of those things that I'll never forget. Oh yeah and why didn't you include Josh in your comment about the girls being delicious? : )
