We had a rough day today. Aidan and Emmy were both up a few times last
night and Brendan had to get up at 4:30 to go on a business trip this
morning. Emmy cut a tooth today and everyone was tired and grumpy the
entire day. I made a big mistake by trying to go two places this
morning. We had to run an errand in Old Town Alexandria (and get a few
pictures too):
and then we went to the River Farm to see all the flowers. Aidan just
wouldn't listen - he is usually really good about paying attention. I
told him if he didn't stop throwing dirt we were going to leave. He
looked at me like "yeah right, we just got here". So he threw dirt
again and we left. He trailed behind me crying all the way to the car
"I'll never ever do that again, I promise wahhhhhh". We still left.
After dinner we went for a walk by the Potomac because it is just too
boring between dinner and bath without Daddy. Aidan rehashed the
afternoon's trauma and told me that he was "very disrespectful at the
River Farm". Very cute - it's so hard being 3.
A new use for the salad spinner - note to self - wash the salad spinner before next use :)
