Something I Forgot to Blog...

At the beginning of last week I was having an especially hard time with my angelic little almost two year old. He was not acting so angelic and I was afraid that's just the way it was going to be with a two year old. On Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday Easton was hitting me, biting me, kicking me, and yelling "No Mom!" to everything I said. He emptied out his entire bath onto the bathroom floor with a measuring cup in a matter of seconds (I really do watch him when he's in the tub:), peed his pants five times in one morning (he's been potty trained for a good month now), and threw MAJOR tantrums in stores throwing things off the shelves, etc... It was terrible. We have been trying to figure out the whole discipline thing, but it's HARD to find out what is effective for your child.

On Thursday I worked my normal 9 hours while Tyson's mom watched Easton. After work she and Amanda and I had our monthly toe appointment. When I got there I was relieved to see Easton asleep on the couch with his angel face on:) We finished the appointment and I got back in my car to drive home. I checked my phone and there was a text from Kelsey that said, "Don't tell me you have a toe appointment."

I got home to find that she had prepared a "romantic" dinner for Tyson and I. I don't know if it was because she knew how stressful the week had been or if it was just because she made all this yummy food in her class that day. Probably a little of both. Tyson had eaten without me (he'd been home for an hour or two), but mine still tasted great after it was microwaved! She made spaghetti with sausage on top. She actually made the sausage. There was a lovely salad (on Tyson's plate only of course) and bread with home made garlic butter. She also had apple juice in champaign glasses for us. The fruit was sliced like it came from some fancy restaurant too. She is the ultimate over-achiever.

Just wait till you see everything she's making for Halloween!
