Yikes, I just noticed that it's been over a month since I last posted on here. I kept meaning to, but it wouldn't be me if procrastination wasn't involved.
Today is my 7th anniversary. Ryan and I aren't into big romantic gestures or anything, but we did have a nice day together. Ryan's parents took Griffin for the afternoon. We originally wanted to take a nice ride and get lunch, but it poured out all day, so it didn't quite work out that way. Instead we had a late lunch at an Italian restaurant and then ran some errands. It was nice to have some quiet time together, and talk without answering 100 questions from a 3 year old.
Speaking of my 3 year old.......we are totally going through the terrible 3's right now. No, it's not terrible 2's, it's 3's! Someone once told me that 3 is a professional 2. They weren't kidding! Oh the joy of hearing the word "No", or having to say "no" 5 times before he'll listen. We are constantly having to take away toys or put him in time-outs lately. It's so frustrating. I keep reminding myself that it's a phase, and that it will pass.
There is good side to. Griffin's finally sleeping in his big boy bed and not his crib. I'm kind of embarrassed to admit that I let him sleep in a crib that long, but hey, it worked and we were all happy. We put the bed in his room months ago hoping that he'd be excited for it, but no luck. Ryan finally took the crib down, and Griffin didn't have a choice. Apparently we did something right because he went right to sleep in it that first night, and has ever since. No fighting, or getting out of bed.
Now....if I could go to bed and stay in bed all night without the dog waking me up or Griffin getting up at 5am, life would be good.
