Sleepy, Sleepy

I don't know why, but I seem to capture a lot of moments when Lily is sleepy or sleeping. Maybe because she is actually calm enough for me to get the camera before she moves, or maybe just because I think she is just so darn cute, who knows. Here are some pictures of Lily from the holidays, being very sleepy. I am sure you will notice the ubiquitous thumb in the mouth, a common sight when she is tired (it has been her mouth's constant companion practically since birth).

After a day spent with Ryker, Lily's cousin. Notice all the things she has to have in her bed to be able to sleep properly. Oh, and yes, she is in a toddler bed, but she likes to have the crib railing propped up next to her bed. If it didn't involve me having to find some tools, I should probably just put the crib back together, since she still likes that security.


Lily just waking up, with bed-head. Wait, do I actually see a smile? And doesn't she have great hair?
