Disaster. What was to come was the worst temper tantrum he's ever had, and probably the worst I've ever seen! He was MAD! And nothing we did or Said made it better. We were both getting pretty worried with the severity of the tantrum, but we are assuming it is just a normal 2 year old reaction to the disappointment of a new toy being taken away. The next morning he woke up 30 minutes earlier than usual, all on his own, and the first thing he wanted was his train!
Friday is show and tell at school and last week he chose to take dada doll. He didn't know dada was going out of town soon, it was like foreshadowing. But he loved taking dada doll to school and Ms Rebecca said he loved showing it at circle time!
We had a fun weekend and spent most of our time playing at home. We went to the park a few times, went on a few walks and into Monterey Sunday for lunch and shopping. We had hoped to go to the aquarium but it was terrifyingly crowded so we will try again another day. I loved watching William play though! He loves to make car noises now and he has started to make dialogue between his cars. Last night he was playing with 2 trains and I heard him say 'hi Thomas, hi Percy, come on Thomas...' The conversation didn't always make perfect sense but it was precious!
Monday night and Wednesday night William woke up around 1am with a nasty cough. He never wakes up at night unless he's sick, so I feel bad that his cough is bad enough to awaken him. Hopefully it goes away soon.
We are spending the next 8-9 days reliving our 2011 life while dada is out of town. Lots of cuddle time and everything revolving around William - what a life! But we miss dada. William knows he is gone and knows he is coming back, and he really enjoys talking to him before bedtime every night! We are having fun but he's still best buds with dada...he even made me buckle him up in Melvin after I dropped him off at school :)
Hopefully this next week has no tantrums and no coughs and just lots of fun playing :)
