The Craziness Comes Out Sometimes

Well, there were no pictures taken today.  It was not because of lack of cuteness.  Bubeaner was quite dashing in his outfit and cool boots.  And Bubita was so adorable with her brown and pink outfit with matching brown headband and huge pink flower bow.  But even with all that cuteness, they were just difficult today. 

The original plan was to visit aunt Pau at work taking her some balloons and flowers and possibly even eating lunch with her.  We started trying to leave at 9a.  By 1030a, we had given up hope.  There was crying, whining, dressing and undressing, packing and unpacking of the diaper bag and just plain difficultness.  Bubita did most of the crying.  Bubeaner took care of the rest with his fair share of whinning and crying. 

This if from a few days ago, but pretty much the look he had all day.

On the bright side, Bubeaner used the potty again this morning.  We are 2-2!  We are still not officially potty training, but just letting him tell us when and if he wants to try the potty.  In the morning it works.  In the afternoon, he was caught squating obviously "working" on something.  He was pretty clear about his response when asked if he wanted to use the potty: "No, mmm, no, no potty." 

Bubita did manage to roll off the trundle bed in the nursery.  She only actually fell less than five inches.  How she managed to fall was the confounding thing; the trundle has a little ledge.  But then again, we should not be surprised.  The girl has been a rolling maniac the last few days.  Whenever she wants a toy or something that catches her attention, she will roll to get it.  She then rolls back to where she was or towards another toy.  She does not appear interested in crawling at this moment.  Rolling works just fine.

Bubita has such a beautiful smile.

We did enjoy a nice little afternoon walk around the neighborhood.  Bubeaner really perked up and relaxed during the walk.  Bubita was just thrilled to people watch.  We followed this by a relaxing warm bath where we let them play longer than usual.  However, even that was not enough to avoid a little meltdown at dinner from Bubeaner.  He didn't even really eat dinner.  It was just crying, crying and crying with a dose of whinning.  His bedtime may need to be pushed back... though he has not had a problem the previous nights. 

Dadda read him a few bedtime stories and sang to him before putting him to bed.  He was asleep almost before Dadda walked out of the room.  Bubita was not far behind.  For now, they are sleeping peacefully.  Let's hope for a better day tomorrow.
