Calum has a dramatic flair not seen since Desiree and Dakota were little (I'm guessing here but I really think this comes from their Dad). Last night I said something , can't remember what it was but it must have been "No", which upset him. He cried his big tears, his lips trembled, and when that didn't work he walked over to the tissue box and grabbed one to dab the tears from his eyes and to wipe his nose. He really made a point of making sure we saw him do it too. I think there may have even been a sniffle or two involved.
This kid never forgets anything either. I told him his spidey pjs were dirty and needed to be washed in an effort to get him out of them and changed for daycare yesterday. He seemed to agree and I got him changed into his non-spidey clothes and off to daycare. As soon as we got home yesterday afternoon, he was asking to go downstairs. I thought he wanted to play on my computer or with the toys in our office but he went to the dryer and tried to open it looking for his spideys. Now, bad mommy that I am, I had only started a load just before going out to get him so they were still in the wash. Luckily, thanks to Nanny and Papa, he has a second set and we rushed upstairs to get him changed. I tried to put this off, asking him if he wanted to go to the video store. He said "Yep" but insisted on wearing his pjs again, all the way to the video store. At the video store he remembered exactly where the Spiderman cartoon was in the kids section and insisted on renting it (again).
Toddlers sure are a lot of fun - they can drive you crazy and make you laugh at the same time.
Look for some new pictures later in the week.
