A week of being a two year old

I'm not sure if the haircut was inspired by the behavior or the behavior was inspired by the haircut. But for about a week around the time I gave Ike a mohawk he acted like a bratty two year old. Throwing tantrums, crying if the littlest thing upset him. I seriously thought I was going to loose my mind. But I must have done something right because after about a week he kind of snapped out of it. He still throws little ones or does the hands up back arch when he's not happy but nothing like that week. He's been the sweetest little boy up till now. Then Jason had to go and say 'maybe Ike is just always going to be perfect', then a couple days later it started. Thanks alot Jason.
I think I have my sweet boy back now, knock on wood.

Dino Museum

Ike and I finally went to the Dinosaur Museum at Thanksgiving Point. We met up with my new friend Rachel and her 5 year old boy Daniel. He was very cute and helpful showing me and Ike all the cool stuff at the Museum.

At the end they have an area with sand where you can brush away the sand to reveal the dino bones. Ike was a little freaked out by the sand at first but quickly got over it and ended up playing in there for a long time with his new friend. It was a good day with new friends.

Coolest Happy Mail

Ike and I got the coolest Happy Mail from Rainey the other day. She said that Simon saw it and just had to get it for Ike. Good eye Simon, you pick the best Happy Mail ever.

Ike loves it and Ryan had fun playing it for him and trying to scare him with it.

Giddy Up, Giddy Up, Giddy Up Yee Haa!

Jace was making Ike laugh so hard on Sunday. Ike just insisted we watch it about 20 times with a few crying fits mixed in there. I wonder If I can somehow make a 2 hour loop of this video, then I could take a nap, clean my house, make dinner and take a bath. How would it be.

I'm gonna knock you out

I figure if I just have Ike where a hoodie everyday till his black eye goes away people will think he's a little boxer instead of an abused child.

What happened? Oh yeah, people keep asking me and I keep forgetting that my sweet little boy has a big shiner. Well he crawled up on my magazine rack Saturday night and fell off hitting his big wooden toy on the way down. Ryan and I both watched him do it. He actually didn't cry for that long and then fell asleep pretty soon after it happened. (and stayed asleep, I'm thinking of adding it to his nighttime routine). He got a balloon out of it from a nice lady at Smiths who felt sorry for him. He seems to be a quick healer so hopefully it will be gone soon.

Little Stinker Dinker

I was frosting some Halloween cupcakes and Ike kept trying to climb up on me and then cry when I wouldn't pick him up so I put him in his highchair next to the table to watch while I frosted them. I found a cute design online for the cupcakes and had to run downstairs to remind myself what they looked like. While down there I checked my email and was starting to reply to when when I had a feeling like Ike was probably out of his highchair on on the table eating all the cupcakes. So I ran back upstairs to find this... He was so happy when I found him how could I be mad. He ate half of one and was onto his second when when I got there.

Can you say sugar high, I gave him a bath after I found him and had to chase a naked boy around the kitchen for a while before I could through him in the tub.
