upside down...inside out...


today
photo of the day. being chased by lions.

today was good. well good for the most part, unless you want to include the part where i thought i was being a cool/nice mom for giving brody chocolate milk to drink with breakfast and instead of eating his oatmeal he guzzled his milk and really only ate like 8 bites of oatmeal and after that he just wanted more chocolate milk, but alas i was a mean mom who wouldn't refill his milk because he refused to take 4 more bites of oatmeal. wow, i am mean. so then there was a major melt down and once he settled down it was a good day. we played and colored and danced to the intro of sesame street it was good, unless you want to include the part where brody kept hitting me with his plastic baseball bat and kept running to the fridge opening up the fridge door and kept picking grapes and then rolling them under the fridge. then yeah it was a good day. it was a good day when the sun...yes the SUN graced us with her presence and made it so wonderfully beautiful outside that we went for a very long walk and went past the fire station by our house and watched the fire trucks pull away as they went to save the day. i love our fire house, the fire fighters always wave to brody. i think it's so cute. it was a good day. it was a good day when brody woke up from his nap and we hopped in the car and met tyson on campus and brody went swimming with tyson and i went for a run. it was a good day unless you want to include when it was time to leave the gym, but brody was having too much fun riding the elevator and we had to pull him away and go outside with him screaming it was pretty awesome, then yeah it was a good day. it was good day when we got home and dinner was almost ready and we all sat down and enjoyed dinner together. it was a good day when we had a dance party in the kitchen and when we pretended to be lions and chase brody into his crawl tunnel and he was all smiles. it was a good day. it was good day until about bath time when brody wanted to keep chucking his tooth brush at tyson and tyson took it away, pretty sure our neighbors thought brody was being tortured or something, because heaven forbid he doesn't get to chuck his tooth brush, seesh! it was a good day once pj's were on and warm fuzzy blankets were wrapped around our little bear. it's was a good day when the bear leans in to give you kisses without asking. it was a good day when he falls asleep on your shoulder. it was a good day when you can look back and laugh at the day and know that with all the highs and lows.
it was a good day.

You just explained perfectly a day as a mom of a toddler - So great, but so hard.
