Non-napping 2 year old

So, lately Jameson has been ON-THE-GO. He literally never stops and gets into this, that, and everything else. This afternoon, he was just so tired. You could see it in his eyes. he was also very cranky (as we all know crankiness comes with tiredness)!

James tried to put him down for a nap, to no avail. We have tried everything. He now knows how to climb over the gate, kick out the bottom gate if we double gate his door, gets out of his bed, etc, etc, etc. Getting him to bed at night and down for a nap has been a challenge for a while now.

Today, James decided that he just NEEDED his nap, but since he was refusing to cooperate on his own, a little bit of force was needed. ;0) This is how you "wrangle" a very active 2 year old and get him to fall asleep. It took about 10 minutes. He fought for a bit, but pretty soon we were hearing some pretty load little zzzzzzzz's coming from the lil man.

Notice how his lil feet are poking out from between the backs of Jim's legs and how Jim pretty much has him in a locking bear hug. LOL! Love the boy to peices, but boy has he proven to be a handful. Good thing he is so darn cute, especially in peaceful (finally) slumber.

The Rest of Photo Class Pics

Here are the last few weeks worth of pictures from my photography class. It was fun. I learned a lot and I am excited to keep working on all that I learned. Hopefully I can be as good as my husband some day :0)

We went to the Temple last night to get a last few pictures...

I love the Fall colors and the Temple... Together it makes for a great picture.

This is the best we can do for a pic of all 6 kids at once. No way we can get them all to look at the same time, staying still, and no hands in front of their faces...
