2011_03_10 Thursday

Gosh, I love a good stand-off first thing in the morning. Jonathan decided to dump his toy bins to find a broken watch (that I think I've gotten rid of, since he hasn't been interested in it in months). He wasn't being malicious or vindictive, just 3.5. Now, I won't let him come downstairs for breakfast until he cleans up the legos and the dinosaurs. He's since told me that his shirt tag is hanging out, he's tired, he doesn't want his toys...

Guess we aren't going to the science center right away!

Well, I did end up winning the stand-off. I think he got hungry. And, we spent the better part of today at the SC. School field trips drive me insane, but we had a nice time. He really wanted to see the aquarium (which is an exhibit of local marine habitats), the zoo (which is all about camouflage and animals who mimic other animals), and the toddler room. That was plenty for me. whew. I'm pooped.
Here are a few shots of our adventure:

Dave hung out with Aunt Shannon today. will be nice have him home tonight...assuming the airports don't flood (ahem.).

Love those moments (sarcasm). After visiting a friend going through a divorce and her kids last weekend, Holly asked me in the car yesterday where their daddy was. When I explained that he lived in another building and that there are all kinds of families, one mom, one dad, two dads, etc. she informed me that she'd rather have two dads and have me move into another building. I'm glad Jonathan hasn't told you yet he wants to get rid of you. Just you wait though......
