It was just one of those days.

This was the face of my little sunshine for most of the day today. He was just really struggling for some reason. The bad behavior (mostly just crying non-stop) started after breakfast and lasted off and on until bedtime. As you can see, at lunch time we still had not gotten around to brushing his hair and at 3:00 in the afternoon I decided I better get out of my pink robe before the day was completely through. By the time Andy got home from work at 7pm (much too late for me on a day like today), I was spent! So now I am blogging to relax...hopeful that Tate will be back to normal in the morning.

...every cloud has a silver lining

In the middle of eating his yogurt covered raisins, Tate broke out into the song "Once There Was a Snowman" as he held two raisins next to each other in his hands. I dashed to grab my camera...I am always shocked when he grows up before my eyes!

And moments later (camera still in hand), I was able to capture this sweet scene of Tate holding his hands up in the air and declaring that he was a "big boy!"
