It appears little Yaks has taken Isaac's view of things and has enjoyed several alternative sleeping arrangements. A month or so ago, I went to check on him after tucking him in for the fifth time, and he wasn't in his room! I looked downstairs and behind couches, listening for the sounds of wandering, but the house was totally silent! I decided to check his room one more time before I hit the panic button and started screaming his name. On my way out of his room for the second time, I spotted him.
In the closet
The kids have been using laundry baskets for a variety of purposes lately: boats, cages, small tables, etc. I went to check on Yaks several minutes after tucking him in for his nap, and found him here:
Baby Moses
His little legs were all scrunched up, a sippy cup resting in between his legs. He had even managed to cram a few story books in there!

This falling asleep anywhere and everywhere runs in the genes (the Paulsen ones). A couple of weeks ago Ethan fell alseep laying on the bathroom floor. I have a couple interesting sleep stories myself. Checkout my last weeks notes on facebook and you'll see. Glad to see the habit moving to new generations. So cute!
I don't uderstand it either. Especially a laundry basket! Doesn't look to cozy on the neck. Ethan was my creative sleeper. I would panic and find him asleep under his bed, wrapped in a pile of dirty laundry, and once behind the door to his room so I couldn't open it. I was afraid he was dead so I heaved it open and moved him to his bed.
Great places!
I'm glad that you found him before the panic really set in.
I guess in the end if they get the needed rest, and you get the needed quiet-time it's o.k. right!
Oh, those pictures are hilarious. Yaks is going to love seeing those one day when he's all grown up.
I LOVE the laundry basket one!
Laundry baskets are always a pull for kids (and cats, by the way). Those pictures are so funny. I have always been a bed sleeper too, much to my mom's annoyance, even as a baby. You can imagine how fun our road trips were. I guess what it comes down to is this: now you have a really great excuse for not catching up on that laundry pile!
That sounds all too familar. I used to love sleeping in the closet... I can remember thinking of how it was my own little room. Love the pictures :)
Those photos are so awesome. I love them.
How sweet he is. I love his creativity! Who would have thunk of sleeping in the laundry basket. How cute.
