I wonder why babies sleep with their arms up in the air. Is it because 9 months in the womb just makes them want to stretch?
My favourite pictures of my niece Naya are the shots of her sleeping with her arms up in the air.

Sleeping like this looks horrible on adults, but on kids it’s kind of cute.

Naya is so cute! And you’re right, it’s not as cute when adults sleep with their arms up.
*yay! will click on the button, “I’m a Human” again. LOL*

Im asking the same question too, for I have the same photo of my little girl with one arm up or two…I think they are already clamoring for equality
in this world of “men”

OMG you’re back! Seriously, I have been wondering when I’d ever get to read more of your musings! Ok, I don’t want to freak you out but such is the life in the Philippines that you can pretend to work while really bloghop… And that’s how I “discovered” this treasure trove of fun!!!

no idea… they both look so adorable… so angelic…
i have no idea why they sleep like that tho… my dumb guess would be that it’s how they are most comfortable… i have plenty of pix of david just like that…
