Kids Sleep The Darnest Ways

My 2 older brats refused to take their afternoon nap the other day. By 6pm, Alycia was wiped out. As for Sherilyn, haiz… this girl is hardly sleepy in the afternoon. My mil and I often have to resort to the cane to threaten her to take her nap…. coz if she doesn’t nap, she will be like a zombie by 7pm and would sit at the dining table, in a daze with food stored in her mouth.   Her energy level is amazingly at full bar most of the time. She would be singing, scribbling, climbing and hanging like a primate, playing and doing everything else but sleep.

Back to my story….

I was calling out to Alycia but there wasn’t any reply. After a few yells, Sherilyn said “mummy, look at jie jie” and pointed to her room with a sneaky smile. When I stepped into the room, lo and behold, I saw this fler all curled up and sleeping like this LOL:


Like that also can sleep wor hahaa…. kids are amazingly flexible and resilient. If only we adults can just be like them!

  1. Haha, Vic is also like a energizer bunny and lately she’s been begging me not to make her sleep in the afternoon. Those days if she doesn’t, she will conk out by 8pm or even 7pm and the maid and I hv to hurriedly prepare dinner for her.

    These days? she can wake 8am for kindy and not sleep in the afternoon and last, FULLY CHARGED throughout the day, until 12midnight. Sigh..

  2. So cute….good thing about kids, they can sleep wherever they want, so “hang fok”

    There was one time my son Dillon was sitting in the highchair after makan dinner, he was too tired and he slept in high chair in sitting position while I went into the kitchen……walaueh….like dat oso can….hahaha LOL

  3. ooh…u just reminded me about 1 of ur post where u had a photo of sherilyn sleeping with food in her mouth *haha*

  4. haha cute of her resting on top of the cabinet. BTW Sherilyn same with my nephew “zombie” sitting at the dining table with food stored in his mouth. But once the dinner over his gain back his full energy bar, jump & play happily. Don’t worry this is just a phase as my nephew has passed it now 🙂

  5. Kids do sleep in the funniest of ways!!! Many times, I caught my 2 and a half yr old sleep standing, as in she literally was standing on the floor, while the upper half of her body was bent over and lying on the couch. Imagine that???

    Most of the time, this happened in the afternoon when she refuses to take her afternoon nap, so we just let her do her own stuff until she got tired and fall asleep.
