~Sleepyheads~

This makes my heart smile every time I see it. 
Since Christmas of last year they have all been sleeping in the same room.  I never would have guessed that would be a good idea, but they all sleep better when they are together.  I've know for a while that when Alec or Elyssa gets scared Alec sometimes climbs down from the top bunk to sleep with Elyssa.  Well, a few months ago Cordy started climbing out of her crib so we moved her to a toddler bed.  Then I went to check on them one night and found them all piled together, sleeping happily and peacefully.  I just couldn't resist taking a picture.  
Why is it that kids are so gosh darn cute when they are asleep?!
The best part of the story is that I showed this picture to Elyssa the next day and asked her if she knew they were all sleeping in her bed.  She said "No.  I went right to sleep!  How funny!"  I'm glad she was able to find the humor in all the crowding.  :-)

This picture is my computer background right now. I agree, it's wonderful.

So adorable. I love it when my little ones snuggle together. In fact, I have considered taking Poppy's bed out of their room and just officially having my girls share a bed because they like it and do it anyway. I don't know why children are SO cute when sleeping (and sometimes it makes me feel guilty that I like them best--not always, but sometimes--when they are sleeping), but they are.
