Getting out of the house

I would like to begin the post with a little plate of cookies that I made the recipe for today. It was yummy!


Will has been really pushing his limits these days. Today is actually the first in a few days that I have not put him in time out. He has started to bite, throw things (especially sippys and tantrums), and just not listening. At first his time outs consisted of us having him face out and stay in one spot for about a minute. HHe thought that was a game, so we started facing him into the wall. He has NOT liked that. He cries and whines, but after a minute or so, we let him out and talk to him about why he is being punished. Hes usually ok for a while after that.


So Aly has been getting bored being cooped up in the house all the time, and we have an annual pass to the Living Planet Aquarium. At first Will was hesitant to touch the fish tanks, but after a few minutes, he just became fascinated with all the colors and fishies. We thought we would only be there for a short time, but he kept on going back to certain tanks and playing so an hour and a half later, we left.
So we needed a night out and decided to catch a movie and have Aly's nieces watch Will. When we came back, this was the picture we saw. He sure loves Jessie and Cammi!


Now this one makes me laugh. Spence was playing with Will and with the light behind his head, this made him look like a little angel. HA HA!
