Rough day this afternoon. All 3 boys were sitting on their alpha mat and i decided it would be fun to play a giant game of peek-a-boo with one of our large blankets. Apparently Aidan needs to see where he is in order to sit up straight because as soon as the blanket went over his head (and the other two) he proceeds to fall directly backward and i hear a loud THUMP as he hits the CARPETED floor. and yes, there was requisite pause for two seconds before he then bursts into tears. yes, I'm up for mother of the year this year (sigh).
Last night we went to the Amiri Cup (soccer) and left the boys at home. While we were there we saw what could be our future - a little boy of about 3 or 4 up WAY past his bedtime was whining and into EVERYTHING - the spit out sunflower seeds on the ground, crawling on the ground between seats, laying on his dad's lap, etc. And of course every time his dad tried to get him to hold still and watch the game he would start crying and getting even more squirrely. That will probably be Aidan the way he is into EVERYTHING he can scootch to these days. Just one more reason we are sleep nazis - No nap, Know tears. Know nap, No tears. :)
In just under 3 weeks we head to the US for a month of relaxation and vacay . . . couldn't come soon enough! and now, Proud Mom Alert: more pix . . .
