Guess what he is doing as I type? Same game, different time. I wonder how long it will go on this time. I have to just keep telling myself "It's just a phase". Right?

He has to Pass Out Eventually, Right?
So today started out with a routine tot time outing. Oliver loves tot time. We usually do it twice a week. He runs like crazy and I only have to intervene when he takes another kid's toy. All of his (my) friends were there having a great time. Today he must have gotten hurt 12 times. All silly little bumps that he would have normally brushed off. He just fell apart. "He must be tired" I thought as I apologized for having to cut our play date short. I crammed lunch in him as quickly as I could, read him his normal 4 books and got him in bed. Ahhh, now I can eat lunch and take care of a few things around the house. Before I had kids I had always heard about how great the pitter patter of little feet were. But, now all it meant is that defiant Oliver was running to his door to peek out. It's not cute. When he sees me coming he slams the door and goes running full speed back to his bed. This went on for 2 hours. No joke. He usually naps for those 2 hours. Believe it or not he really was tired. He napped until dinner time. Oh well, I still got my break.

Right, it's a phase...or at least that's what I keep telling myself too! Hopefully all is quite now!
G'night!
just remember... it may make you crazy now that it's happening, but in 5 years, you're going to wish he was doing that instead of something 5x crazier & more disturbing... it's what kids do. you'll miss this someday. :) btw... i love your blog and i'm officially reading this every day now.
That's why I plan on keeping Corbin in his cage, I mean crib, until he's 9!
"It's a phase!" My favorite reasoning! I think Oliver's a riot!
