ARE YOU KIDDING ME??

Let me tell you about how my day has gone so far. It started bright and early (just before 7 am) when Hayden woke up, so I had to get up. I hate daylight savings time. (Have I mentioned that Hayden wakes up usually between 6 and 6:30, unless I try to use him as an alarm clock, and then he doesn't wake up until 7:30, so I'm late?) So I put on Signing Time and we listened to it a million times while I tried to half-sleep on the couch and Hayden ran around making a huge mess of the place. Later he learned how to put things in the toilet! YAY. While I took a shower, Hayden pulled every single thing out of the bathroom drawers. After my shower, I was brushing my hair in the bathroom when I heard a really weird noise that I hadn't ever heard before coming from my room. I have been making baby bracelets lately, and just bought some new beads. I put them in their container in a tupperware box, up high on a table in my room so Hayden couldn't get into it if he happened to find a way to crawl up and get to it. Well, he got to it. And he somehow opened the box, opened the container, and dumped the new beads on the floor RIGHT OVER THE HEATER VENT! So they are mostly gone. I sent him to his room while I cleaned the few that were left, so he would be out of my hair. He found a box of wipes and opened the lid. When I walked in every wipe was out of the box and on his floor. (At this point Hayden had successfully made a huge mess in every single room of the house today, and I'm not exaggerating.) I decided to laugh instead of freaking out so I went and got the camera. The memory card was full, so I pushed the button to look at the pictures, but I accidentally DELETED EVERY SINGLE PICTURE!

Have I mentioned it's only 11 am?? I cannot wait to see what the rest of this day brings.

Before this sounds too much like complaining, let me just say that I will soon be able to laugh about this and that there is still nowhere I would rather be than home with Hayden.

UPDATE: 1:00 PM.

Here is a picture of the destruction.


How did I get a picture? Because HE DID IT AGAIN! We went upstairs to change his diaper. I got distracted and he got into my room again. I heard a now familiar sound and when I ran into my room he was bent over, pouring the beads right into the vent! He did it on purpose! AHHHHH. If anyone wants a baby, I will sell him to you.
