  12. So serene. I just love watching babies sleep... Although I have to admit it used to scare me because I thought I'd wake the baby. But now I am fine with the watching and admiring.

  21. Lovely!
    He sure makes sleeping with a favourite truck look comfy and peaceful.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog. I actually enjoy a blackout as well, lots of games of Scrabble ;)
    but for us no power also means no water or showers we have to bucket everything in from the tank. After a couple of days it starts to get a little bit wearing.

    Have a great week.
