Aidan never does anything half assed. He is teething again. This time it is two molars and an eye-tooth. All. At. The same time! This doesn’t make for a restful weekend.

Friday night I was sure that Aidan would be asleep in no time because he was tired, a little bit frantic and he got up before 7 that morning. This usually means that he goes down really easily. Not this night. I am pretty sure that he woke himself at least three times before midnight. This was when we decided that tylenol, and some dimetap for the stuffy nose might be in order. While it may be really easy to give Aidan medicine when he is awake, when he is tired and has woken himself up a few time it is a disaster in the making. Aidan still had a hard time sleeping. It was about this time that we figured out how many teeth he was trying to get out at once. He woke another few times during the night and we were all exhausted on Saturday morning. About 10 am we refound the oragel. Aidan was quiet for a full hour. Sigh, why didn’t we remember it the night before?

Saturday we spent mostly looking for glasses for me. It is always difficult and the pair that I like best is $529 just for the frames. Most of the hip glasses are not for my face at all. They make it look rounder than it should and really much older than I want to look. I think I have a couple that might work but we couldn’t keep going with Aidan because he was very quickly becoming “Tantrum Boy.”

On Sunday we got up later than the day before and didn’t do too much. Well Anthony cleaned out the filing cabinet, shredded three garbage bags full of paper and file all the bills and other paper that was hanging around the front table and computer desk. Oh we also got our new camera. Anthony found a nice camera very much on sale and got it to replace our small digital camera that was lost/stolen from our luggage at Christmas-time. So I had a chance to play with it a little bit. I will be posting some pictures a little later. I am also planning to take some pictures of me in some frames. Maybe I can get some comments on which pair to get.

Anyway, after playing at the park, eating supper and a bath Aidan was very tired and went to sleep without a fuss. Keep you fingers crossed for a good night.

  1. Since when does Canada Post deliver on Sundays? (Wait for Mama’s post)
  2. Are two naps possible? Is it a good sign or a bad sign?
  3. Oralgel is not a bad thing, and in fact, when remembered can be a very good thing.
  4. 3 hour naps in the middle of the day put a crimp in weekend activities.
  5. When the toddler is hungry, do something about it. Now.
  6. Schedules are good things. Don’t disrupt the schedule. Really. Don’t even think about it.
  7. The “light duty” shredders are, in fact, only meant for light-duty.
  8. Electrical motors are somewhat like computers with respect to the “magic smoke”.
  9. Bubbles are excellent. Gazillion bubbles are way excellent.
  10. The bunny may not be so evil after all.

Aidan loves sharing.

Look how he shares Mommy’s nectarine:
