Patience!

You know those days you pray for patience, then Heavenly Father answers and gives you "oppurtunities" to grow?!  Well that was my whole day Friday with Hadley! I guess I failed because I feel like whatever patience I have is officially gone. 







This picture is my favorite.  Once again, she has always traveled well and I'm sad to say its gone!  This was the final straw of my patience!  She screamed and I mean screamed for 45 min on our drive up to Utah.  She threw her binky, blanket, favorite stuffed animal and kicked down our dvd player.  (I promise she's not always a little stinker.)  So of course when we get into St. George she decides to give in and fall asleep.  But even in her sleep she was still so mad!

That picture of her asleep and still mad is the best. Love it.

And the diaper in the toilet does not surprise me. I think that's only a preview of what we have to come! :)

This is hilarious. Only because I COMPLETELY understand. That picture is priceless. I love that you said, "and even in her sleep she is still mad." Such fun times. Right? They're getting to that age that makes me want to scream sometimes. Haha. Actually sometimes I do just to get Hudsons attentions and boy does it. He looks at me like Im crazy. lol. Thanks for sharing. It makes my bad days easier to handle.

Those days are the days you need to remember the sweet angel that takes good naps, otherwise we wouldn't make it through them. I love the picture of her sleeping, and someday she will hate you for that too! Isn't motherhood great?

Oh NO! I totally know how that is. Ammon has SCREAMED from SLC to Leeds when he was 7 months old! Needless to say I didn't go anywhere for like a YEAR! Now that he is 3 he is really good in the car.

Lesley said...

What a punk! Keep on movin mama. She will lay on the sweetness tomorrow and you will wonder how you could get so mad!

Sorry about that deleted comment. oops..

Welcome to the beginning of toddlerhood =) It gets better. Right now they are just so curious and want to explore everything.

Is it me or does all little kids love the tiolet? SO GROSS. And I'm right with ya with the screaming. Laure has always hated her car seat so going out has always been a challenge. Just like what the 4th to last comment said...We didn't get out much! =)

On a happier note. It has been nice to see you lately!

You crack me up! I hear you on the no nap situation...Austin has always been good and those days just throw you for a loop! Good things those days come and go. Her face looks like you guys are in for it!! Cracks me up with her pouty lip!

Caitlin said...

She is so big! It's been too long. I really think you guys need to come to Salt Lake for Christmas. I can promise I'll make it worth your while...

Days like this, give me a call. I'll take Hadley for you....seriously. Glad you guys are all moved in. You'll have to post pics of the new house. Better yet, I should just come see you!
