Today's Maternal Round-Up
Things that get me through the day:
Coffee
Yogurt tubes
Juice boxes (technically I only allow juice once a day, but if the entire house is having a hard day, I'm not too proud to cavil on that one)
The interblegs
XM Radio Kids
Graham crackers
Coffee
"Music time" with the guitar "played" by Peabo
Nap time, if we're lucky
#1, 2 and 4 in the DVD player
Going to the bathroom - seriously, this is the time I can read a page of a magazine. Is that sad?
Coffee
I also realized today that trying to get a busy toddler dressed is a little like one of those Family Circus cartoons that details the routes a child takes to do...well, whatever. I never particularly liked that comic strip, but they are pretty spot on in terms of the circuitous nature of trying to get a small child to do anything. The shortest point from A to B is usually to just give up. Peabo gets dressed in stages, but at least it's summer and clothing is minimal. I give you an artistic rendition:
