What a full day we had yesterday. It was a good thing we kept busy playing with grandma and then swimming at Papa's hotel while he was there for work.... otherwise things might have continued on as they had in the morning:
WHAT LINCOLN IS UP TO:
While I went into the kitchen to stir the mac and cheese Lincoln filled his biggest sandbox shovel
and proceeded to toss it into the living room. That didn't go over well with me, so he had a nice extended time out (I set the timer for 5 minutes instead of 3). I guess he was afraid to come out after that because he stayed up in his bed for quite a while and wouldn't come out to eat with us. Jackson and I had finished and moved on when I heard him say, "mom! come see my gingerbread trail like hansel and gretel!" He made a nice little trail of macaroni and cheese all through the living room. It was definitely time to get out of the house.
CUTE STORIES FROM TODAY:
This morning when Lincoln climbed in bed with me as he usually does, he asked, "mom, you done sleeping yet?"
Tonight when I was tearful and worn out from an exhausting day Lincoln said, "mom, you not feel good? You need juice to feel better? I go get you some juice." He went and got "me" a sippy cup of juice and brought it to me. He gave me one sip before he snatched it back, declaring me, "all better now, that's enough." I guess it worked though... he did make me smile again.
