It's 11:30 am. I have been up since 7 am. Pablo woke up slightly later than usual but the anticipation of him waking up, had me lying in bed with one eye open, ready to jump up and grab him when the "get me out of my crib, I've been here 12 hours" cries began.
We had a nice morning but he is now cranky, fighting a nap, and I have had it. I arrive at a tipping point, where his cutesy, mischievous smiles, his spaztic movements and his inquisitive self all become a little bit too much for me to handle. So I go lie on the bed to try and get his dad up and let Pablo basically climb all over him until he gets up or until Pablo surrenders to his yawn.
Eventually his father gets up, grabs him, takes him downstairs to darkness and gets him down.
Life with kids can kick you in the ass sometimes. I sometimes think waiting until I was 36 to have one also bit me in the butt because I was so blissfully independent for what feels like forever.

Yup. You write truth! #storyofmylifetoo
ReplyDeleteThe ass kicking doesn't stop, it just morphs as they get older. #itsworthit
Oh man...I'm so sorry! I just had a front row view of my sister doing battle with her 2 year old while visiting over SB and it was ROUGH. Hang in there, momma!! :)
