Sleeping Beauty a.k.a. Molly Grace...

I have never had a child who has fallen asleep in more random places! It seems when she gets tired, she goes to sleep, no matter where she might be in the house! I guess playing and running around all the time really makes this little one extra sleepy! These pictures are from a few weekends ago when I took the older girls to the $3 theater to see The Karate Kid, which was great by the way. Rodger was at home with Molly. He had told her to go upstairs because it was time to get dressed for bed. Well, she didn't get that far, apparently she was too tired to make it all the way up the stairs so she just layed her little head down and went to sleep right there! I am very thankful that Rodger took pictures for me, so that I could enjoy this sweet moment also!
Please don't mind the mess at the top of the stairs, it's called "Being a Mom" right? I'm not the only one who has a crazy messing landing, right?

This was a few months ago. It was a Sunday morning and I was busy getting everyone ready for church. I hadn't seen Molly in a while and was wondering where she had run off to, thinking she was somewhere playing! Well, when I found her this is what I found. She had on an apron and a Pampered Chef children's hat, which was way down on top of her face. It was nice and loose though so she was breathing fine! She had been coloring in this apron and hat and found it to hard and she was just too tired! So she went to sleep, right then and there!






This last picture I have posted before but thought I should post it again since I have been sharing the random places where Molly falls asleep! I don't remember what we were doing that day, but Molly wanted to play with Play-Doh, but soon decided she was just too tired to continue playing. So she went to sleep! Such a cutie-pie!
I have said it many times, but I am so thankful to be a mommy! I am so thankful to have 4 healthy girls who are so so wonderful! I feel like I have become such a better parent as time goes by. I think about when I first had Abby and how I didn't really know what to expect and I didn't really know what I was doing. We really should have a book for that! But with each child I have grown more confident about my parenting and I am enjoying so much instead of worrying myself silly! I am so thankful Heavenly Father has let these 4 wonderful daughters come to my family and be in my life! I am soaking up every minute of it! Even when they fall asleep in the most silly places, I love it and feel lucky to be a part of it!
