Lately, the second Dash hears the door chime as the kids leave for school, he wanders out of his own room.
Unfortunately, he gets out an hour earlier than he should be.
But we make do.
He always insists on his own lunch bag.
I tell him he has a deal if he goes on the big boy potty.
Then he tantrums it up like a crazy person, because he doesn’t “have to go potty”!
(Mind you….he is jumping around like a Mexican jumping bean telling me otherwise.)
But after all of the craziness, he goes, he puts his underwear back on backwards, and then he gets his lunch.
Then he sneaks in to grab Nonnie’s black IPad.
He has the same obsession Scout did when he was this age.
And the fact that he can beat me at Temple Run is amazing and pathetic at the same time.
Then I tell him that the black IPad time is over, and he tantrums it up again.
But…
All of the irrational behavior goes by the wayside once he sees his Pips is up and ready to play with him.
