The google definition of zonked as a verb is “1. Hit or strike 2. Fall or cause to fall suddenly and heavily asleep or lose consciousness” (February 7, 2017).
I love my older boy’s ability to zonk out, it has never been a trait I could master. However, he has fallen asleep chewing pizza, slept through me fishing the bit of food out of his mouth, and then moving him from point A to bed. In this particular pizza sleeping incident point A was a bumbo chair and we went out the front door and down the street to our house where I deposited him in bed.
ZZZ is defined by google as “a sound used to suggest the sound of sleeping or snoring. A comic book showing someone sleeping with a speech bubble overhead is an example of ZZZ” (February 7, 2017).
There have been so many of these priceless zonked out moments. Do you have any to share?

Thanks for stopping in to read my A to Z post for April 2017!
I imagine zonked also describes the adults after the children have finally gone to sleep.

Ours usually zonked out in the car. I wish I could fall asleep as easily as they did.

Aw, these are adorable. I don’t remember ever having to fish food out of my kids’ mouths after falling asleep mid-chew—that’s hilarious! They always seem so sweet an innocent like this. I’ve enjoyed your A-Z posts immensely and will absolutely follow along to see what you come up with next! ♡

So darn cute! I remember when I was about 4 or 5 I figured out that if I pretended to be asleep, my Mom would carry me to bed. I did that a lot during night time car rides….
Congratulations on a successful A to Z!
