wild things




What a wild day.  I left for the bank this morning and went and went all day long.  I paid the mortgage, opened a svings account, and ordered a new card.  After that I went by my mom's house to feed the baby.  When he was asleep, I took the boy to get the license plates for my car.  Then we went to try and drop off the mortgage check at Wells fargo in Tom Thumb, but the line was too long.  I went and got a box of baby cereal instead.  we then went back to grandma's house where we dug out the old high chair and decided it was too dirty and needed to be cleaned.  So we used to trusty old bumbo to sit the baby up instead.  He had his first few bites of cereal.  I didn't have any pumped breast milk over there, so we used formula.  Later on he threw everything he had eaten up. I think that it doesn't agree with him, so I bought the soy kind to try.  It was a little over a month since we had opened it, and it says it is only good for a month, but I figured we could try the other one anyway.   Michael was playing in the backyard and my mom went out to check on him and he had taken off all of clothes and gotten into a big broken tub that we use for little branches, and he had filled it with water.   He said he was taking a bath. 
We went to Walmart a little later on and ... Drumroll please..... Michael ate some ham.  Some deli meat ham.  Brown sugar ham!!  I can not beeeeleeve it, to quote little einstiens.  Earlier tonight he also asked me for a soft carrot. I guess he was just in the mood to try some new things today.
When we got home earlier he was MIA for a while, but I could hear him running around.  I was also on a pretty important call so I could n't get up.  Later I went back to my room and he had drawn all over my door with a red dry erase marker.  I made him clean some of it up.  He did not like that at all.
Overall, Michael was actually really much better today attitude wise.  He had a couple of moments, but it was a relieve to have him be sweet for a while.
Aiden had aaanother huge blowout today!  They didn't have a baby changing station at the bank either.  It was everywhere.
On that note, goodnight.

Oh sister....I don't even know what to say about the marker and the door. If that had happened to me, someone probably would have had to call CPS.
