don't be fooled

Wednesdays are supposed to be a day of catching up and housework. A day to cross off stuff from the to do list and spend some time with the kids. A day I love to fit in some crafting and getting everything done early so I can go to bed early... well, not today, something happened today.... Lucas happened today!

POD 05/03/08

I mean, don’t be fooled by his angel face and sweeeet smile, this boy is a handful and today he was at his worst. Just holding on to my leg and not wanting me to do anything else besides hold him (that’s sweet but I had stuff to do). He gets in between me and the computer, me and the sink, me and whatever else I am doing, physically he gets in front of me and keep trying to pull himself up. To top it off, he is getting into mischief non stop, he keeps trying to get things and get into places he is not supposed to. Ok, what else did he do today:

Unrolled the toilet paper, two seconds that I went to get Mateus’ underwear and left the door open he got in and unrolled the toilet paper all over the place.

Emptied his juice bottle/ his milk bottle/ his water bottle on whatever surface he was on (including cot and carpet) Spilled juice everywhere, I go chasing around him wanting to grab the bottle from him, and he wails when I do. I try to make him understand he can’t turn it upside down and shake it LOL but yeah, half the time I have to take it away from him :(

Spread muffin crumbs through the WHOLE house, including his bedroom and the bathroom, and he did an especially good job in the sofa, sticking the crumbs in between the cushions.

He didn’t nap today, he cried most of the time he was tired. I tried to put him down and even lay down with him, but he only rested for 20 minutes, tops.

He had 1/5 of his lunch and proceeded to want mine and then spit it out after the third spoon full. Have I mentioned he is especially skilled at spitting things out? He makes sure there is no way you can reach the food before it reaches your clothes!

I love the little guy, but he is getting on my nerves, and the little brat has his way with me, he gets a lot of what he wants with complimentary kisses from me, grrrr.

Mateus, to balance it off, was a little angel today. He gave me a little trouble to finish off lunch, but other than that I can’t complain, especially while Lucas is on the house, I can’t complain LOL
When Alex arrived I begged him to take them away, I just needed an hour to tidy up. Gosh! Please tell me I am not crazy, do your kids sometimes get on your nerves so bad you just want time out?
