{Oh, Yesterday}

As I was going to bed last night, I was recalling the events of the day and realized why I was so tired...here's how the day went:

• I wake up to Lauren saying "Mommy...bed's wet" (diaper leaked--yipee I just changed the sheets!)
• Ripped her file folder games in half and tore pieces apart
  
• During snack, I am on the phone, and she smears cookies all over the counter then dumps a glass of milk all over herself and my newly mopped floor.
• 3 wardrobe changes before nap time
  
• Didn't fall asleep for nap time until 3, when she is usually asleep by 1:30.
  
• Rips all the pieces apart of her new puzzle.
• Chucks her dinner at Dean's laptop because I wouldn't give her more Ranch.
• Manages to get black all over her legs and feet (after her bath) when she went in the garage with Dean
• Covers herself and the office in stickers
  
• Colors all over her face with a blue marker "Look Mommy, yipstick" (I should have taken a picture)
• Used an entire package of wipes to clean off the marker when I asked her to get ONE!
  

and the list goes on and on. I know it could be worse and she didn't set anything on fire and there was no blood involved or permanent damage, but to me it just seemed like a lot of drama for one day and very unusual behavior for Lauren. Every time I turned around she was into something and my patience was wearing thin. I had had enough by the time the day was over...luckily she is so stinking cute! We'll see how today goes.

Side Note: There is good news...Lauren pooped in the toilet today! I haven't been pushing the whole potty training thing, she hasn't shown much interest. Dean however managed to convince her to do it! Luckily she didn't remember Dean's promise of a new trampoline when she went poop in the toilet!--oh the bargains we make to get our kids to do what we want!
