Laughter is the best medicine.

So today was one of those days- we all have em. I just feel like, for some reason, I tend to have them on a more regular basis than say, the average Joe. Well, for one my name isnt Joe- maybe thats why. On with the story- G was havin a rough day- he refused to sleep through his whole morning nap- so from 9:45 til 1:30 he was a inconsolable. Naturally we went for a walk to the grocery store, hoping he would calm down. Not a chance. Still crying once we got to the store- I took him out of the stroller, (I'm a mom now and that means you are good at multi tasking right? well- again let me remind you- my name aint Joe.) and proceeded to carry G doing the whole bounce and sway bit, push the stroller, and get groceries. We might have ran into a few bags of chips sending them down the aisle, and witnessed a few packages of pampers takin a dive off their respective shelves. Guess I've got a ways to go to be a "mom". Anyway- on the way home guess who got to push the stroller while holding a crying baby the whole mile home- thats right. yours truly. At least my arms will be super tough- hes turning into quite the chunk. However, tough arms and all, I may have started get a little frustrated because nothing I could do would calm him. Finally- 1:30 rolls around and it was quiet! for 2 whole hours! (his naps usually go from 9-11 and 12:30 -3.) but hey-today i'll take it. During that 2 hours I decided I would make some cookies. Bad idea,Still a little flustered, I found myself dropping stuff and spilling stuff all over the place, I have the worst OCD's when im cooking- so that made me pretty mad. As I was pushing the button to disconnect the beaters, I accidentally pushed the button forward instead of in,to full speed ahead-not losing my cool at all I calmly decided it wasnt such a bad thing to have pumpkin painted cabinets and flooring. Once the cookies were in the oven I decided to "take a breather" to calm down- as I was taking a drink from my water bottle - the lid popped off and sent a liter of water down my front. seriously? still somehow controlled my furious rage that was threatening to send fire out my eyes. Last but not least- it is laundry day, so I'm changing it out, and as I'm unloading the dryer- my arms are full and a sock fell out- so I lean down to pick it up and 3 more drop. repeat, repeat, yes repeat once more.Getting more and more furious each time I leaned down- I finally just chucked the whole armful . I dare you to act like you've never done such a grown up thing. Perfect. The baby was somehow still sleeping so I decided I needed to lay on the bed and was out for an hour! Bliss
When G woke up, he was pleasant as can be- and this

is what made today all in all seriously a GREAT day. apparently he thinks its hilarious to have socks hit him in the face. what a weird kid.
