Stir Crazy

Hyrum is driving me LOCO today! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. He is really into wanting to touch everything right now...everything he shouldn't be touching. Like the garbage, for instance. What is so extremely exciting about a kitchen garbage? Nothing, I tell you. But if you are Hyrum, it is the unexplored treasure trove of items to examine and then casually drop on the floor. I feel like I am spending my days running after him and cleaning up. Or, if I am not doing that, he is whining and holding onto my legs...only until I pick him up and he immediately demands "dis" (while pointing to some object that he should not touch, like a pushpin)and distorts his body into some unnatural position in an attempt to get close enough to the object to get it. It is about this time of day that I start to get a little annoyed at the fact that I have not been able to get anything done that I needed to (a hot dinner is now something I can only remember, vaguely). So usually I try to take him on an outing (like to Grandpa's office or something...anything), but today we are waiting for Aaron to call so I can pick him up from school...so, anyway, I am impatiently awaiting this weekend when there will be cousins congregated in one place where Hyrum can play with them and be entertained.

Plus, the other bonus is my anniversary. I have some surprises up my sleeve for Aaron and I am soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo excited to 'get away' for awhile with my husband, and be a wife (read: not a mommy) for a couple of hours.

I am counting down the minutes.
