I had to speak at an event Friday morning and the photographer just posted pics online. Holy moly. You know how you have this image of how you look? Yeah, mine doesn't match up to how these pics look. Talk about motivation to get moving.
Took chili down to my friend whose little boy got burned. They are tired but recovering and he looks great. I was prepared for the worst and really am impressed with how well he is healing. We made a play date for President's day cause I have the day off. Hopefully soon the horror of what they went through will just be a distant memory. Also the youcaring website raised 11,000 dollars.

LO is getting quite good at stalling bedtime. This all is after his first round of potty visits/milk drinking and first drink of water that I usually let him have.
LO: Pee pee? Me: You want daddy to come help you use the potty? LO: No.
...
LO: Wet. Wet diaper. Me: Do you need a fresh diaper? LO: Yeah. I go to change his diaper and find it's dry. He won't let me put the same one back on, so I get a fresh one. He rejects this too. I try another diaper and threaten daddy if he doesn't wear this one.
...
LO: agua? I get him his cup from the first time he asked. He drinks some, tries to say night night to the car across the street.
...
LO: milk? Me: Milk is all done. It's time to go to sleep.
...
Rinse and repeat.
HrHe's never used this many stalling tactics in one evening before, and the whole diaper shenanigans is totally new. I think I'm mostly just impressed at this point.
OMG I'm dying over here. The crabbiness is out of control.
Here too. I don't know what DH did while I was getting my mani/pedi, but I left him a happy kid and came home to a crying, whining mess. My guess is nap time went much worse than he was willing to admit.

We had a b day party for my uncle. The party was in full swing and my boys were tired. I left Ben there and did bedtime by myself. Where are my cookies?

I had to give myself a time out and let H take over. Girl was on a mission to climb, destroy, scream, and scream some more. Good luck to you. They have to eventually figure out that life is not a conspiracy to make them miserable every second of the day, right?
I totally think that was G's thought process, all day. Biggest meltdown today? He broke a crayon. It was just a crayon!

@winesconstantly That's awesome! I'd like to go to a reading someday of his. The whole thing yesterday just felt so lucky because he came to our small - ish town instead of having to go to Denver or Boulder. He was so cool DH has only read Stardust so far but I'm pushing American Gods and the Sandman series on him now
