Well, I didn't make it to the gardening post I was planning on this morning, but I'll tell you what did happen. Parker fell asleep while eating lunch!
We played outside for a while, then walked around to the front of the house where Parker wanted to swing. His eyes glazed over in the swing, and while I got no response to my inquiry about a nap, my suggestion of a sandwich met with a "ess," which is Parker's way of saying yes.
I'm out of bread, so I wrapped up some meat and cheese in a tortilla and heated it in the microwave. Little excitement from the boy.
I cooked some pasta, throwing in some mixed vegetables from the freezer, and mixing the whole thing together with pesto and Parmesan cheese, which Parker proceeded to eat. He looked so tired, but I expected him to tell me when he was finished eating. The next thing I know, I look up from what I'm reading to find Parker asleep in his highchair. It was amazing. He's in bed right now, and I hope that the fact that I've turned off the stereo doesn't effect Parker's recognition that he is sleeping in a familiar place.
All this week Parker has been taking his nap before lunch, which pushes lunchtime back to 2 or 3 o' clock. I thought today I'd try to feed him at a more normal time. I guess I underestimated how tired the boy was.
