After that came lunch time. I knew that the meal could get a little bit messy, but I really thought Jackson was past this. As my dear friend, Susie, would say, "Come on. Really?"
I realize the photo might be a bit confusing. The tears are because I said it was time to clean him off. The smile was bribed out of him with a cookie. What you don't see in the photo is that his belly and arms are also completely covered. Oh me, oh my! A nap soon followed and I am discovering (as he woke up while I wrote this) the nap was not nearly long enough. How do I know this? Well, he tried to be nice by wanting to clean his blocks. No, I don't mean pick them up. I mean clean. He threw a fit because I wouldn't let him use a paper towel for his blocks. Now, one paper towel I could understand, but he wanted a new paper towel for each and every block! To this, I say "no." And the tantrums continue.
Molly has actually been pretty good today. She woke up around 12:30am last night and not again until 7:00am this morning. But getting food on their faces seems to be an epidemic for my children. Thankfully, Molly's was just really cute and easy to clean up.
