Once I got my shower and got ready, we took Patrick's car out for a drive. I haven't driven a stick shift in 11 years (yikes!) so I needed to re-learn/practice! I did pretty good! We stalled a couple times of course and I never got past 3rd gear but it's a start and I feel good about it so I will be able to at least drive it around the neighborhood once and a while.
Target was next on the list to find a shirt for Mom. Bailey did not want to ride in the cart which has become a regular thing now and started letting out short screams at the top of her lungs. Oh my this is not something I am ready to deal with! She has always done so well in carts and strollers and all of a sudden she is pitching fits and screaming when she doesn't get her way and I am not quite sure how to deal with it! I tell her no and ignore it but I always hate those people who let their children scream in stores and restaurants so I always think about that and end up getting her out or doing whatever I can to make her happier. It is just getting frustrating to take her places but we have to work on this because we can't stay home all the time! Hope this is a phase!!
We had tacos for dinner and now Bailey is sleeping and Mom and I are going to have strawberry shortcake and watch a chick flick! :)
One more thought.... Bailey figured out how to climb up onto her little bus today. I was in the same room with her but not looking directly at her when she did it so I only saw her standing on top with a big 'ol smile on her face! She did it several times throughout the day and just thought it was so fun. It is definitely cute but not safe at all! She finds new ways to scare me everyday now! She banged her head on the table tonight and about gave me a heart attack! Not from standing on the bus, just walking around and lost her balance. I don't let her play with the bus now unless I'm there! Oh the joys of toddlers!
