He is actually napping!  Faster than one could say SkippyJon Jones, SkippyJon Jones, SkippyJon Jones plus one hour, he fell asleep.  I explained to him what a promise is last night.  I asked him to promise me he’d nap.  Then when naptime rolled around, I promised to read three books, and gave a warning after each one.  Two more books, then it is naptime…one more book, then we go to sleep.  Finally after 45 minutes of wrestling and me struggling to keep calm, we agreed that we would play in the sandbox when he woke up.  And he finally fell asleep.

Did I mention we like SkippyJon Jones over here?  The first book we checked out from the library last summer, I think it took me 40 minutes to read it.  I don’t speak Spanish, and it has a lot of Spanish in it.  A lot of flare if you will.  I felt like a fish out of water trying to read it, but I have honed my Skippito skills and now it is a lot of fun.  Right Mr. Fluffenutter?  Si, my little crumb cake.

Yes, if you can’t tell, today is going much better and things have quieted down.  I am catching up on the piled up laundry.  I’ve vacuumed, the kid is squeaky clean after a 40 minute bath.  Hopefully we will be able to make a decision about the house in question tonight.  I disinfected the bathroom floor at 11:30pm last night.  I was angry at the mess, so I figured I should use that to my advantage and tackle it head on.  Do you get a lot done when you’re mad too?  I know I do.  I become very efficient, and usually feel much better afterward!  I’m weird.

Anyway, this picture flipped by on the screensaver the other day, and I tracked down the file to blog it.  I just cracked up, because he looks like a little alien!  I think this was taken two winters ago in early 2007.

All I can think is Wow Wow Wubbzy…”Just say BEEP.  Beepbeep…beep…”
