Today was crazy. And interesting. And I’m just gonna list some stuff because I want to (so much for focus, right?):
My children eat Frosted Mini Wheats dry. Like a snack. Straight out of the box. I think that’s weird.
Megan asked to play a game this morning. I told her I would play after getting a couple of things done. A bit later, she asked me, “Mom, now can we play the game I referred?” Referred?
The i-beams were installed in our basement this morning. Eric also picked up the doors today (I think one of them is not what we ordered), and then we bought our bathtubs, got a title for the double-wide (long story), and got some samples/pricing for exterior rock trim. Then I went grocery shopping before supper (I brought home pizza). Busy day!
Both of the littles thought the crane they used to move the steel beams was pretty amazing.
Because we ran errands through nap time, Meg and Timmy didn’t get naps. Well, Meg finally fell asleep while we were in the parent pick-up line after school. Got a good 25-30 minute nap. But Timmy…not so much. And by supper time he was DONE. I’ve never seen him that upset. EVER. My happy, jolly boy finally reached his limit. He literally screamed himself to sleep on the living room floor (one minute he was screaming, the next he was asleep), slept for about 30 minutes, and started crying again when he woke up, just picked up where he left off. He cried continuously. He wanted held, but as soon as you picked him up, he didn’t want held. He wanted me, he wanted Eric. He hated his bath. His eyes were red and puffy, and he ended up just lying on the ground, with his legs tucked up under him, nearly comatose. He finally let me carry him into his room, read him a book and lay him in bed. He fell asleep instantly (and he’s going to be starving by breakfast). Poor kid!
