Fighting the nap

As some of you know, Tatum gave up naps (her decision of course and completely against my wishes). So instead of a nap she takes a "rest", where she can sit in her room reading books (her favorite past time) or playing with toys. She's aloud to come out when the timer goes off and she's very good about obeying this rule. Anyway, she was very tired one day but said she didn't need to nap, she was just going to read books. But when the timer went off and she didn't come out, this is what I found. A little nap on a bean bag.

We were suppose to head to dance class after rest that day but Tatum is about as pleasant as her father is after being woken up from a nap. Due to this pleasant demeanor, she decided she didn't want to go to dance and would rather stay home and make a craft. Fine with me since who wants to take a crabby kid to dance class. Instead, I went to www.kaboose.com, a great craft web site, and we made this Scarecrow face, lots of fun! We're trying to get in the fall mood, despite the hot weather outside. :)
