aaaawwwwwaaaahhhhhhaaaaaaboooohoooooo

Alex has been very very very stubborn lately. Patrick and I cannot figure where he got that from ;)

His ritual when he gets home is to run to the backyard and play. We play for about an hour and have to coax him inside with juice, fruit snacks, fruit, or dinner. He will not just come inside because we ask nicely. Once inside, it's a screaming fight to get undressed (because he's either filthy or wet because of the water table). Then he finally eats and that's a peaceful time. After dinner he needs a bath, but tonight was EXTRA special because he wanted to watch CARS and he just screamed and cried and threw his body all over. I just had to video tape it because no one ever believes us.

He did not go get his towel, which he usually does. I had to carry him to the bathroom. Once he's in there he usually just jumps in the tub but he threw a screaming fit for about 10 minutes. Once he's in the tub he usually plays, but tonight he didn't. This is the first bath on record that he cried and whined the entire stinking time. He cried out of the tub, he cried on the potty that he wanted to sit on.

After I put his diaper and jammies on, he finally calmed down and watched CARS for about 10 minutes, and right now, he's behind me whining.

There are no teeth that I can feel, but I pray that he stops this whining or Patrick and I will go nuts.

Behold...
