And We're Off!

We're getting packed up for our Spring Vacation. How much stuff does one kid really need?? Well if he's my son a lot! I received my new beautiful!, stroller this week! I love it! So Check that off the list. Clothes, lots of clothes! Check! 3 pairs of shoes for Hayden. Check. Toys for the car. Check. Elmo movies. Check. New cd i made. Check. Swimsuits. Check. Thats actually all Hayden wanted in his suitcase. He wants to swim! Snacks. Check. Sippy cups. Check. Winter clothes. Check. He is excited and keeps asking if we can go on our trip now. I am sure once we get in the car, he is going to want to get out. He asked me if Jason was going with on our trip. I told him no he has to work. He was okay. But he had to make sure there was a reason Daddy wasn't going. Lots of fun this next week is going to be!!! I want to talk my dad into a tour of the Jelly Belly factory!
In other Toddler news:
SHARING: IS IT OVERRATED?
No, it isnt, but apparently my son isn't into that new fad. Thursday Jacob came over to play and Friday Jessica did. Hayden i guess wasn't exactly into the idea of people using his stuff. Oops! Guess i should work on that more than his ABC's. I was actually working both days and Jason got to handle it. Hopefully he'll get over this, and soon!
NIGHT TERRORS? TODDLER MYTH OR FACT.
So Hayden has been waking up sobbing in the middle of the night. This week he woke up, sort of, with what he says bugs in his pants. He made me take his pants off and told me his was scared of the bugs. I plopped him on my chest, like i did when he was an infant, and he instantly fell back asleep. This happened last week too. But with what he says a big scary train. I feel so bad for him! I feel like he is too little to have such bad dreams, which could be related to his none sleep patterns. He feels like he doesn't need naps, or doesn't need to go to sleep at night. Silly boy.
BUFFY, GONE FOREVER?
Well it looks like its gone for good. He hasn't even asked for it this week. Someone may have slipped him his buffy once last week, but this week as been great. He is getting better at soothing himself.
TODDLER GUN(PAINT) CONTROL?
So my mother bought Jason a paintball game for christmas, that you plug into the tv and shot the other players. Well Hayden loves it! I don't, anymore. He was taking the gun and saying shoot mama. Ummmm i don't think so! He was shooting, Elmo and Baby Bear on Sesame Street Too! So i took it away. I am now pro-Gun Control!(Paintball that is!)

Have a great weekend! And week too, if i don't get to update, but i am sure i will!!!! To everyone who is traveling have fun and be safe!!!
