Vacation Mode Kingston

One of the hardest things about vacations is what happens to our daily schedules. Chloe misses the activity and focus of school. Siena misses her peace and quiet. And Kingston loves every second of the extra people around. He parties so hard that he will not go down for a nap . . . unless the sleep monster takes him out when he is not looking:

 That happened at 3:30 in the afternoon. No amount of poking, prodding, tickling, or sitting up would wake him up . . . until 6:30. Here he is at 6:30 finally starting to stir:

So what is a dad supposed to do when faced with the prospect of a well-rested two year old at 6:30 in the evening? Take to the bottle of course! A diet coke bottle that is. Unfortunately I still fell asleep before him, waking up only after he started poking and prodding me because the TV had gone into 'sleep' mode. Perhaps it was not my greatest parenting moment of all-time, but it is vacation, right?
