Cuz S. saved the day and babysat while I donned my inappropriate and offensive Halloween costume for a gathering for "grown-ups only". Funny fun.
Worst Partz of the Day-
1. Planned to meet peeps and take kiddies for an early din to an ingenious restaurant that has a separate "family room" with a carpeted section and a slew of fascinating toys for the littles to play, play, play while adults eat, chat, drink. I knew it was dicey for my kiddies as Fridays are tough and usually the little freaks eat right at 4:30pm and Liam has a known/documented witching hour from 5-6pm, blah, blah, blah--something told me not to, but I did it anyway...Liam was being highly fussy from the start... Within 12 minutes of our arrival he ended up socking a friend's little guy over a coveted train and I had to exit him pronto (he has never clocked anyone except his beloved sibling.) Scarlet was irked to say the least and she ended up staying with Cuz K and having a blast.
Liam had what I would call his first full-blown tantrum (Scarlet had 1 billion by his age) and he sobbed for 33 minutes until his voice was hoarse from screaming over and over, "I want to go back to the kid party!!!!" I was only pleased that I had not yet ordered a glass of wine--then I would've been extra mad to leave with such a quickness.
2. I planned to not go into work today and instead clean/put on storm windows, launder like an Irish servant and clean the entire home from top to bottom. Even after my hours of slaving, I somehow felt guilty for not going to work. Get over it, Freak!!
