we went on a hike today. he was hilarious, he kept running really fast and then kicking his shoes off to get us to laugh. it was funny until we asked him to stop because he was getting into big rocks and we didn't want him to get hurt. he started crying and throwing a fit...we ignored it and he calmed down. then we decided to go home and he didn't want to walk...he wanted me to carry him. so we spit water on him and he calmed down...(we tend to non-traditionalists). we get home and he insists on sitting in the dark playing with his trains. he didn't want lights on. fine. then it was too dark and we wanted to sit in the living room....melt down number 2....
we then, started making dinner. chris made it and i played some games with max. he was in a great mood. he loved the pumpkin game from his highlights magazine. so we had a great time. i offered him some yogurt and he melted down again. who knows why?? ignored...
meltdown at dinner, bath, brushing teeth, and bed time....he got no books tonite...i explained his wasting time...and he said "tomorrow i'll listen and not be naughty." unbelievable. ugh, i could have thrown him out the window if he wasn't so dang cute.
he had a long nap but a horrible night sleeping last night...so all's forgiven...it's all good...i'm alive and so is he...

Sometimes you just have one of those days. I will ask my parents about the neighborhood tonight at dinner and try to call you.
