Sweet face, huh? Not so much this morning! World War III broke out when it was time to get up and get ready for school after being home with mommy for two weeks. There were tears when he had to get up, tears when he had to get dressed, tears when he had to sit down and eat breakfast. I even had to force him to go to the bathroom. He was insistent that he DID NOT have to go to the bathroom after sleeping all night and drinking an entire cup of milk before going to bed...ugh!
Such an ordeal when he had to pick something for breakfast. He usually eats mommy's cereal (also known as Lucky Charms)and when asked if he wanted it, he said "Nooooo!" How about a Pop Tart? (Who turns down a Pop Tart?) Again, "Noooo!". Muffin tops? "Noooo!" A resounding "Yes!" was given when I finally resorted to a chocolate pudding cup and got the first smile of the day. After breakfast came brushing teeth..not a favorite of Collin's even with his new Diego spin brush from Santa. At this point we are 10 minutes late getting out the door and Collin's lips are shut tight so that I cannot brush them. What do I resort to? Bribery, of course! So, after having his teeth brushed, Collin got a piece of sugarless gum. What can I say, it was Monday and we were late!
Collin is very much enjoying his new "play room" that had to be made to accommodate all of the toys that we now have as a result of a very nice Christmas. He loves to sit on his couch and take in a Thomas flick. He also enjoys his labeled bins for all of his toys. So nice that my little guy enjoys organization as much as I do..thank goodness!
Something new that Collin said today: "I missed you too, Mommy."
What Collin is doing now: Watching "Thomas", of course!
