This is a pic from Egmont. A guy has his own Island and helicopter. Liam loved seeing it flying abck and forth. My little two year old!
So, Today is one of those days where i just couldnt wait for Ryan to get home. Liam is now 2 years old and the terrible twos are definately catching on! We have been busy every since getting back from Egmont, and so Laundry has been very slowly getting done. Today I had some time at home so I thought i would try and get it done while doing other things around the house. I would be folding and putting things away and then Emery would wake up, so i would go in the room to go get him and i would come back and Liam would have destroyed my piles of folded laundry!!! I am definately not one of those women who enjoy folding laundry. I would much rather every person have a big basket that i could just throw clean laundry in and they can fold it if they want! But..seeing as how my husband was spoiled growing up, I have to fold laundry. He even makes me fold some things certain ways because thats how his mom did it...! anyways thats a differant story. So..after Liam destroyed my piles a few more times as i was trying to multi-task , I decided to not get mad and just accept that he is an innocent 2 year old that was just taking advantage of the warm fluffy piles to jump on. I sat him in his high chair with a home made popsicle, to keep him occupied. I also at that time put Emery in his little chair so that he could also be in on the action. I then proceeded to put away clothes. Walked into my room for a second and Liam screamed for me because his popsicle was melting.I gave him a paper towel to satisfy him and then went back to my business. Only time enough to get a hanger out of the closet , Emery started crying. I went and gave him is suther and talked to him a bit and then went back to the room. Things like this happened a couple more times as Liam dropped his popsicle on the floor and it broke off the stick and so he wanted a new one (no matter how much i tried to get him to eat it in a bowl with a spoon.) and when Emery decided that he was going to not like himself filling his pants for even a second. After all this I finally thought I was going to get my chance to put away some more clothes, I was excited. But as the pattern goes I wasnt in the room for very long before Emery started crying. I decided I was going to ignore it for a little bit just so i could finish what I was doing. Then Liam started screaming really loud "mom, mom, mom, mooooooOOOOOMMM, MOMMY, MOM,mommyyyyyyyy, Mom, MOM, MOM, MOM, MOM!". I started singing a song as to help me ignore my children for another minute. Liam kept calling me and Emery kept screaming. I had had enough! I finally marched back into the kitchen and looked at Liam and asked him "OK WHAT IS WRONG ALREADY??"....can you guess what he did? Liam pointed at Emery and said "Emy crying." Well ..at this point I was frustrated but had to have a chuckle. I picked up Emery , changed his diaper again, grabbed a popsicle for myself and decided laundry could wait another day. I love my boys and its funny when I think I am trying to teach them the meaning of patience and they are in return trying to teach me about quality time. I enjoyed the rest of my day and made supper and cookies after Ryan got home , Liam ate so many I was sure he was going to throw up. I packed for my trip to lethbridge tomorrow , and put the boys to bed. I thought everything good and I was gonna write this post after saying goodnight to Ryan. Until he went in our room and called me lazy for not finishing the laundry. The only thing I could do was smirk and tell him that I enjoyed my day. I hope that you can find happieness in the madness too when you need it! Love all you who read my blog! -Athena
