The struggle is real for this little girl who was caught dozing off while eating.

Naps and nuggets are life for 1-year-old Marli. And on one particular day she decided to combine her loves during lunch time. 

While eating, the toddler began feeling the weight of her eyelids taking over and started falling alseep. Did we mention she was still slowly munching away with her nugget in hand?!

It wasn't until her mother said her name that Marli woke from her slumber. 

"I caught you," her mother said in the video which prompted a sweet giggle from the baby girl. 

Her mother told FOX 5 she had actually skipped a nap that day; she busy doing baby things like playing and exploring.
