What a Day

I have to laugh as I sit here and type this. We have had a trying day today. Josh has been a little fussy the past 4 or so days. I am not sure if it is his tooth that is bothering him or not but he has not been eating well and he hasn't been playing like he usually does. Anyway, I needed to go food shopping today and it is usually do-able with both boys without too much headache. Off to the store we went. Jared was well behaved, even leaving the toy section of the store, until we got to the lunchables section. He had chosen several different cracker stackers that he wanted and when he kept on choosing and I started saying no, he lost it. That is when my shopping stopped. I will not walk around a store with a crying kid so I checked out with what I already had and went home. Jared cried like a little baby while Josh sat in the cart not saying a word. Jared had to go to his room when we got home so the entire drive home he told me he was never going to come out of his room again. He told me he wasn't going to come out even when he had to go to school so I told him that I would go to jail and he decided he would come out only when he had school. He was out 15 minutes after we got home. He was fine after that and played nicely until I told him he had to clean up the 100 matchbox cars that he had dumped earlier. He didn't want to do it so he started throwing them into the bucket. Now Jared had to sit on the step. It was too cute when Josh crawled over to him on the step and started playing with him. There was a toy on the step that Jared kicked off and Josh retreived it like a little puppy dog. They continued this all while Jared was being punished on the step. 4 minutes went by and Jared was immediately put back on the step because he threw another car. Uggghhh. I can't wait until Drew comes home so I can go back out and finish my food shopping all by myself. It is sad when you look foward to food shopping. I just think to myself it could be a lot worse. Sorry there are no pictures of the pain in the butt being a pain in the butt. I don't think it is fair to take a pic of him while he is on the step.
