Timeout
The cutest thing just happened.
For almost 2 hours, Alex's dinner has been at the table. He's been playing with his trains. Patrick and I have tried to get him to eat. He's said "NO". We've asked him about every 20 minutes for two hours and it's been "NO!"
Just as Alex was rearing back to throw a pillow at Oreo, Patrick told him not to. Alex did it so he was told he needed to go to timeout. Do you know where Alex ran??? He ran into his dinner seat and tried to start eating.
He tried to drink and eat and Patrick took him out of his chair and made him serve his timeout. When timeout was over he had to apologize to Oreo, so he crept over there, bent down and said in the sweetest voice, "I sawy Oh-we-o." Now he's eating. So all it took was a timeout. What are we missing? Oh yeah, we're not 2 1/2.

Mommy had surgery
I got sinus surgery done on the 7th. It's now the 10th and I'm pretty much pain-free. My pain really was from the packing because as soon as that was removed I was relieved.
I cannot lift things that are heavy....mainly Alex. Today he was in his room and I could tell he just climbed on top of his dresser, which also has his changing pad. I went in there to wonder how I would get him down and lo and behold, he had poop. I suppose he knew he needed to be up there anyway. So I changed his diaper then he asked for a bath.
He also pushed his bed from the wall while Patrick was out so I had to leave that too.
I'm so glad he is able to understand and follow through with directions. I laid down on the couch recliner and the tv remote fell between through to the floor. I already had the legs kicked up and told Alex to get the remote for me. "OKAY", he said, then headed down to get the remote. He did a good job!

Rash Update
see...told you I'd forget
It's a contact allergy to fertilizer used in our yard. His arms are still bumpy but he is not itching them. The dr bumped up Alex's allergy meds to 1 tsp xyzal a day rather than 1/2 tsp. Also rx'd him some cortisone cream mixed with lubriderm.
