2.25--6 months old!

we finally got around to hanging our brasilian hammock in our front room last saturday. since then bo and i have managed to take a nap in there together almost every day. we justify it since he's a busy, growing boy who is learning lots of new things and i am ridiculously trying to balance taking care of him, taking care of myself, and trying to take two classes and prepare for two upcoming literature conferences. this week, i have been feeling especially in over my head trying to work on several papers and get reading done on time all during the precious few hours that bo doesn't need to be held or played with or feed or bathed or whatever else we do. and i still manage to waste time taking long naps snuggling in the sun with my boy.

This post made my day because this is exactly what I believe in a) everyone needs a hammock in their living room and b) school comes second and snuggles come first. Always.

So cute!

Good luck this week. Know you can do everything you need to, and do it well! :)

I love the tradition of sleep pictures, especially of Sienna and now Bo. Thank you Tony.

Anything you do with your kids isn't wasting time, which is great reason to take naps, go surfing, and do all sorts of fun things with them.

So cute. Will Tony please come and put our hammock up. We have had ours for 6 years.

that's so funny that we all understand the benefits to hammocks but end up owning them for years before putting them up. It took us 9 years to put up Melinda's Venezuelan hammock.
